zx9cp is on a distinguished road
Hi all,

We are looking to upgrade our hardware and are considering switching from a single i7 & 64GB RAM to dual Xeon E5-2403 processors & 64 GB RAM. I am a little green with hardware specs as I have never had to purchase them before and could do with some advice as to which option is likley to offer the best real world performance when using CFX.

Could someone please explain the relative merits of each and what benefit I am likely to see when switching from single to multi-processor computing?, the specialist computer forums are a little impenetrable!

Thanks,

Chris
