mmmm I wish I had Ansys
My school hasn't upgraded yet because of budget - but I doubt they would put that on student boxes...
What version of SW do you have? And, will it utilize both processors and all four cores? I'm on 2007 with a single core hyperthreading processor - SW won't take advantage of the "2" processors available
Which I guess means that it wasn't coded to multi-thread.
I'm just curious if I should wait for a used dual core processor desktop rather than a fast single core. That is if the next versions of SW will utilize the hardware
