I am looking to buy a PC for the next 6 years. I will be doing CFD but also other things. Here are answers to the checklist:
I will be using Ansys Fluent
I have a license for 12 cores but sometimes I am limited to 4 or 8 cores so 4 / 8-core performance is also important.
Mostly steady CFD simulations, occasionally transient. Mostly small meshes up to 2M cells, occasionally up to 30M. I do a lot of optimizations with 100s of design points.
Budget is roughly 2000 EUR.
Used parts are not an option. Can be OEM or buying parts. I'm from Europe.

I did some research but I can't decide between a desktop PC and a server.
For a desktop I am looking at i9-12900KS or i7-12700K with 64 Gb DDR5 @ 6000 MT/s. There are no dual CPU motherboards available with socket LGA1700 right?
For a server I am looking at AMD EPYC 7313P with 8x 8 Gb DDR4 for example: link
Or would you suggest something entirely different?
