yadolph is on a distinguished road
Hi everyone!
I've been tasked by my managament to search for components for our new workstation that will run mostly ansys Mechanical and CFD (fluent, thermal, etc). The budget is about 15-20k USD

Currently I'm thinking about getting an Epyc 7542 system with eight 64 gig sticks of samsung ECC 2933 RAM.
Is there any benefit in getting a dedicated GPU (Tesla, Quadro) for these kinds of simulations? What should I look into while selecting RAM and so on?
I'm kinda new to buying these kinds of systems, what shoud I keep in mind in this case?
