hello everyone


I would be deeply grateful if you can lend your expertise on my dilemma :


OBJECTIVE


Ansys Forte for diesel sector mesh- 50K mesh cells maximum on adaptive mesh settings. Chemistry-200 species.


Which should i aim:


A 3950X build or the x299 platform. What memory size and speed should be considered and which GPU to have mainly for post processing. We will not be doing any gaming.


Also will it be prudent to invest a in a clevo barebone with i7- 9700 with 32 gb 2666 Mhz RTX 2060 for such small mesh sizes? (though chemistry time scales could be a major factor)


I know that dual channel ram might be a constraining factor for the 3950x and 9700 cpus, but considering the low mesh sizes would it matter significantly?


Any other issues -please feel free to comment and suggest


Regards
