Hello Foamers

I'm currently running detailed CFD simulations on my system, which has an Intel i9-12900K with 4x 16GB DDR5 5200* (edit) MHz memory. I'm curious if this is a good combination for my needs, or if I am bottlenecking somewhere. Should I consider increasing the number of performance cores (currently at 8)? Perhaps a dual-processor motherboard with lower frequency but more cores would be a better choice?

I've also been considering the i9-13900K, which has 8 performance cores and 16 efficiency cores. Would this improve my CFD simulation performance? Or should I focus only on the performance cores when making a decision?

Maybe go for i9-13900K and 64 Gb DDR5 6000MT/s?

Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Best regards,
