Intel introduced dual core desktop CPUs earlier this week. AMD does it today with server and workstation dual cores. We should see in the coming days more reviews. Too bad the LS-Dyna results were not ready for this review.

It seems that the sales people are trying to pull a quick one! They’re trying to sell you obsolete technology.
Pentium 4 Xeon offer no upgradeability path, is a dead arhitecture. It looks like the maximum they will ever get out of it is 3.8Ghz and that is because it hit a thermal wall...

How much would you be willing to spend on a dual processor, 64 bit enabled workstation?
I configured out of curiosity a few boxes:
-AMD64 2.2GHz dual processor workstation capable (that means I selected only one processor, leaving the second one as an option for later)
- minimum of...

I was just being facetious, I'm not a fan of Microsoft and their bloated OS.

And how can Microsoft fix Windows?
I keep wondering why Dassault is not releasing a Linux version... Are they that afraid of Microsoft? I remember I read somewhere that they have it ready.
I could really use more processing power for optimization, I'm not sure V5 is dual processor enabled.
As...
HP xw9300 Workstation
-Dual Opteron upgradeable to dual core processors
-dual PCI Express(TM) graphics workstation with support for NVIDIA Quadro SLI(TM) (Scalable Link Interface)
-Up to 16 GB of DDR memory
-SATA, SATAII and Ultra 320 SCSI drives
I wish they test this in CATBench...

Sorry, it was the AIX not the Windows version.

Dassault and IBM Announce 64-bit Applications for AIX
Dassault Systèmes and IBM have announced the first release of 64-bit enabled Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) applications for...
I just read the other day, I think they already did that sometime in November, a Candidate Release. V5 is or will be available shortly for 64 bit.
Dual Opteron and 64 bit, that should fly!
Too bad Dassault is afraid to release a Linux version. ProE has one.
If you're looking into 64 bit than you better forget about Xeons and Pentium 4. Here is a good review of what you can expect by going to 64 bit from the two arhitectures. Pentium 4 is a dead end,was never intended to be a 64 bit processor, they had to do it because of the Opteron and the results...

I wouldn't place too much trust in Catia Solutions' CatBench. Their home page features Dell as main sponsor. Reminds me of PCWorld magazine not too long ago, invariably Dell would win the top spot in any category.
In their charts out of 11 workstations, 6 are Dell, and 100% are Intel based, on...
