System requirements for AutoCAD 2017:

Display card: Windows display adapter capable of 1920x1080 with True Color capabilities and DirectX 9 ¹. DirectX 11 compliant card recommended.

i know that cpu is fine, but what about graphics card?
 
The GPU will most likely be fine, except I don't know what the display resolution is for your laptop. You may not need that resolution though.

What's the make and model of the laptop?

hi, thank you for the reply, the resolution of display is 1920x1080. laptop model is HP Probook 470 G5
 
Are you using any other Autodesk products?

Because a powerful graphics card isn't a top priority for AutoCAD.

Sounds like it would fit the bill then. Although, I'm a little weary about HP. In my opinion I'd look at a good Dell like a Latitude. Don't skimp on the price though, they do have crap products too.
