I am looking into the upgrade of some computers in ourEngineering department and in the past we have purchased machineswith dual sockets to increase the number of cores.
To my knowledge this is only possible with a Xeon machine (withIntel anyway), and not with a Bloomfield core chip.
Our uses are detailed 3,000 part (approximate max) assemblies, somerendering, and cosmos designer. Some of our parts have very complexcuts in them...we are planning to implement the speedpak, but havenot yet.
Can anyone explain or direct me to a place that explains why theXeon would or would not be ideal for SW. I know it is a serverbased cpu, but what I do not know is how that makes it different orworse for SW.
Thanks in advance,
