I am wondering whose operation speed more fast between ansys 32bit & 64bit. I used window 7 32bit. so I want to install ansys 13 for 32bit. but
I don't know about speed difference 32bit & 64bit.

if someone used ansys 13 for 64bit, please tell me who is fast.

thank you

This is problem and operating system dependent, but in general a 64 bits system is faster. The biggest advantage of using a 64 bits OS is that it lets you use more memory for an application.
