Yes!
I have considered this for almost half year. Its expensive for me. 1000euro. But right now I have to simulate many many OpenFOAM cases. Then I made a hard decision!! This is my configuration: i75820k ddr4 4*4g I wish this will speed it up! BTW, 5820k has 6 cores(12 processors) or 6 processors (12 cores).? |

Just a piece of advice.
Hyperthreading doesn't really provide any benefit for CFD computation so I'd advise disabling it in your BIOS and just running with the 4 cores (leave 2 so you can do other things). |
