It's "up to" 35%. And the price pro core does not really increase with core number if you correct for the influence of clock frequency.

Dell called it 'saturation' in their benchmarks. In the...

Ansys released a White Paper in which they directly compare the per-core-performance of a Xeon Gold 6148 to the previous two generations for a simulation on 32 cores in total:...

According to Google Translate the author calls OpenFOAM a FEM-tool. So chances are, while he got interFoam running (which can be daunting at first), he may lack some knowledge of simulation.

As...

I think that question would be better directed at a retailer. (As a consumer I would rather just get a very nice used car instead of a Xeon Platinum.)

Right now even a lot of server vendors still...

Say I would be comparing two one-socket systems. One 8-core, one 16-core. Both run at the same clock rate, both have the same memory configuration. Even under the assumption that the memory bandwidth...

The first vendor got back to me. For now they only sell Intel, so the lack of benchmarks might turn out to not be the main issue.

They are quoting me various configurations based on Xeon Gold...

Our computationally most intensive cases would be multi-phase simulations using sliding meshes. Since most, if not all, benchmark case come down to single phase flow with an in- and an outlet...

Unfortunately the extra cost of buying 2 servers, 4 cpus and infiband cards, instead of a single server with one 32-core-CPU is easily quantifiable, while the actual performance benefit is depending...

Thank you for the quick response.

That brings me back to my original question: Is there a rule to determine the bottleneck? For example four 8-core-CPUs installed in a 4-socket-system will be...

Some more research and I answered my own question: each socket has it's own memory access. (https://www.kitguru.net/components/cpu/matthew-wilson/amd-unveils-threadripper-16c32t-and-epyc-32c-cpus/)

Sorry, if I'm highjacking the topic, but I've been loooking into getting a new server/cluster and I have two quick questions, you seem to able to answer.

1) If I have a multi-socket-server, do the...
