1 8-core CPU or two 4 core cpu's


Recommended Posts

Good afternoon,

 

Jim Wilson, can you answer from the programmers of VW 2019 the following question.  I have a Xeon compatible board that can handle two CPUs and I am going to upgrade the CPU.   It is currently running a Xeon E5 @ 3.2 GHz.  Is it better, or is there an advantage to having to independent 4 Core CPUs or to just have one 8 Core CPU?

 

Thanks!!!

Camden

 

PS.   Thanks to you all for taking more advantage the very expensive GPU in our workstations!!!

One isn't inherently better than the other, the easiest way to pick the best choice would be to get a cinebench score for both CPUs and simply go with the higher one.
