workstation per nx7.5

[Tequila]

Also for me it is time to retire my ws fujitsu and seen how it behaved the assistance is obvious that I will change brand.
apart from this small clarification I wanted to ask you if the use of the sixcore actually makes sense.
Have you ever verified whether in the use of nx all 6 cores are put to the whip?? or would it be better to opt for less core but more specific frequency?
I've always been a patito of the dual cpu workstations, but lately I'm thinking back.
very often I see one of the 2 opteron that is not 100% committed despite having nx that is calculating.
so I would like to feel the opinion of who has actually machines you with only one multicore cpu, both with 2 multicore cpus.
If in fact opted for a dual xeon quadcore 3.5, the system would see 8 processors, but would this expenditure actually be justified in the field of non-walking?

thanks to all those who want to say their:smile:

from what I know and also from the info received by a specialized technician of my dealer (... of solid edge) there is currently no cad that exploits the multicore and it does not seem to me that in short they should come out of such (until if I am mistaken). for which the answer currently remains always the obvious one to take cpu with higher frequency.

if I don't just run out of fem programs, fea dianalisi manage to exploit the multicore for calculation.

Hi.

currently there is no cad that exploits multicore

the process of regenerating a part is a sequential process, and cannot be carried out by two parallel processors.
using solidworks and regenerating a set, the PC uses two processors (loading to 50% on a quad core) because it regenerates two parts in parallel, perhaps other software can use multiple processors if they regenerate multiple parts in parallel.

Good question... I also asked the head of solid edge developers, but the answer I received was "they are working on it".

I don't know what problems are at the programming level (I could also inform me since my brother is a programmer), that at the moment if we look well for certain aspects the potential of PC hardware on the market is much further than those of the software in use.

I think I read somewhere and some time ago that parasolid is multithread.
the problem is that the various cores/proc are exploited only for some operations (of course the Boolean operations, others I don't know to say), and for the removal of the lines hidden in the drafting (nx word).
when in nx you regenerate a model, if you keep on the task manager you see that the cores begin to go all ball when you arrive on certain features.
