Catia "GPU not part of any certified configuration"
I just bought a new laptop in hopes of using the CATIA apps in 3dexperience. It's a lenovo yoga with 16GB ram, an intel i7, and an Nvidia GTX 1650 max Q gpu. Whenever i try to launch a workbench the error says
"The graphics card, GEFORCE GTX 1650 WITH MAX-Q DESIGN/PCIE/SSE2, is not part of any Certified Configuration on this 3DEXPERIENCE release. No support services are provided by Dassault Systemes for Dassault Systemes software products running on not listed configuration. ... On current configuration, at each 3DEXPERIENCE or GPU driver upgrade, there is an important risk that the current product usage might not be possible anymore."
after i hit ok the window closes and another pops up that says
"Connection to Provider PLM1.
HTTP server timeout
Retry request or contact your administor to check network environment
the application will exit (please contact your administrator)."
I thought since the on paper specs of the computer exceeded the requirements that I would be able to use it for CAD. Is it possible to use this computer for 3dexperience and would there be any issues doing so? Would I be better off returning the computer and buying one that is supported? If anyone could point me in the direction of some resources that could help me solve this it would be much appreciated!

I've never used Catia, but I use SOLIDWORKS a lot, and they are owned by the same company.
Every graphics driver, and Certified Workstation on the Catia website is Quadro related, not GeForce (i.e. gaming): https://www.3ds.com/support/hardware-and-software/
If you are decided on Lenovo you should likely be looking at the Think Pad or Think Station P Series.
