    About CPU you can work with Xeon or i7/i9 for workstation. Hypermesh can not run all core in parallel, so you not need too much core for this.

    Dear collages,

     

    Good morning, I am new on Altair technologies. I want to buy a new computer, and I want to know what is the best hardware that I can buy. I have only one licence (so what I know, I can't do paralell computing), so what equipement do you recomend to me? My objective is to develop Hypermesh works and also Optiestruct and Simsolid Simulations (Linear and Non-linear, such as contacts, plasticity, etc.). Thank you very much for your attention.

     

    Regards,

     

    JJJ

    Hypermesh can not run in parallel mode, but Altair's solvers do!

    Pay good attention to a good GPU.

    Have a look at Hardware supported list of Altair.
