winxp 32 vs 64

September 22, 2005, 04:15

I have a question. what if I use fluent 32 on "winxp64 - athlon 64" machine instead of "win2k or xp32 athlon 64", will there be a performance drawback (or gain)?

thanks in advance,

Windows XP 64-bit will not bring any performance gain against 32-bit edition or Win2K when running FLUENT 32-bit version (a 64-bit version of FLUENT does not exist yet). Also, it does not cause any performance loss, so it makes no difference which one you use.
