March 10, 2010, 14:20	General question - Fluent on multi core PC	#1
jpo Member Join Date: Apr 2009 Posts: 94 Rep Power: 17	Dear All, I am thinking of buying a dual- or quad-core machine and need advice. I need to run various optimizations on a steady flow problem which now takes 3-6 hrs to complete on a single core P4/1.7GHz. Number of cells - between 25,000 to 80,000. Will parallel processing help to speed up the calculation on such system? Thanks
