But 24/7 DEM-simulations are really a stress-tests for machines.

[Yade-users] [Question #212429]: computer configuration
New question #212429 on Yade: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/212429 Hi all, Sorry in advance if this is not the right place for that, but I plan to buy a computer mostly for YADE use and I have very little experience on computer's performances. For instance, between those two configurations: 1) http://h4.www4.hp.com/new_workstations/adlanding/uk/en/z600_details.html 2) http://h4.www4.hp.com/new_workstations/adlanding/uk/en/z800.html Do you think that it would be worth buying the expensive one (2) compare to the other (1)? What is actually the component to favour in regards to YADE structure and behavior? Thanks for any advice Luc -- You received this question notification because you are a member of yade-users, which is an answer contact for Yade. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : yade-users@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
