Hay,

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with running flow simulations with the new 8 core i7.  I am looking for a speedup and am currently running...

Win 7

i7-3930K @ 4.4 GHz (6 core)

64GB DDR3 HyperXBeast

Firepro W5000

I am aware that more cores will give me a speed-up with diminishing returns, however I was wondering if anyone would be able to expand on that to give a better idea of what jump I might expect.  There is a good link below about CFD.  Anyone found any more links?
