Hello I am a Phd student in biomedical engineering focusing on robotics. I need a PC for running solid works, MATLAB, visual studio code, Ansys, ROS and maybe someother simulation and machine learning softwares. I am looking at two options from Dell technologies Precision 3260 Compact Workstation Precision 3660 Tower Workstation I was wondering if these options are okay or is it better to have a Xeon Processor? or are there any recommendations from DELL. Thank you

Some background: Engineering Graduate here looking to get into research and take up freelance works on the go. I know that you can build a better performing desktop for this money but I should be able to travel and work where ever I want to (I'm neither established nor do I have an office) (even from home). Hardware shouldn't be the limiting factor & I already own a previous generation of the same chassis HP ZBook Studio G5 i7 (I am amazed by its reliability; 5+ yr old laptop still works perfectly fine). HP ZBook Studio G10 | 32 GB RAM DDR5 | 1TB NVME SSD | 1920x1080 16" WUXGA IPS Panel Option 1: https://www.provantage.com/hp-894f4ut-aba~7HEWG4UV.htm - i7 13800H | RTX 4070 8 GB Option 2: https://www.provantage.com/hp-894d5ut-aba~7HEWG4W1.htm - i9 13900H | RTX 4080 12 GB The dilemma - Option two clearly has higher spec but I don't want to shell out for a small increase in performance if its negligible & not regret the same. Work Load: Building and Structural Modelling basically a lot of calculations and I use Virtual Machines to run code that I do not trust but lazy to go over it. Happens a lot. Software's used: MATLAB, ETABS, SAFE, Ansys, Abacus, Solid Works. I'm not sure if I need the top of the shelf graphic card for my use case. Looking for longevity (5+ Years) (heard about overheating issues in Laptops with RTX 4080) & value of price diff. in my selection (does that 0.2 GHz base clock provided by the i9 processor make a difference in running VM's). In a pickle here with time, any suggestions would be welcome.

Budget (including currency): 6500 USD / 70.000 NOK incl VAT Country: Norway Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Machine learning, simulations, robotics Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Starting some early planning for a build that will happen either to the end of 2023 or q1/q2 2024. My research adviser has said to avoid workstation graphic cards from the Quadro lineup and use GTX 30 or 40 series (he is rocking a 3090) I dont´t think a Threadripper class of workstation is applicable here. Nor is the budget high enough. But I have been looking at 7950 X3D 4090 128 GB DDR5 6000MT/s 1200W Corsair PSU Any comments or other recommendations? If these parts were to be selected, what manufacturers would be preferable, now that EVGA no longer makes GPUs? MSI motherboard and GPU? ASUS? Gigabyte? What would you choose and why?

Summary: "HBP researchers at the Institute of Biophysics of the National Research Council (IBF-CNR) in Palermo, Italy, have mimicked the neuronal architecture and connections of the brain’s hippocampus to develop a robotic platform capable of learning as humans do while the robot navigates around a space. The simulated hippocampus is able to alter its own synaptic connections as it moves a car-like virtual robot" (The Human Brain Project). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Before you respond, please read my response about how to create safe and real AI. Because I use terms that I make up for clear comprehension. (Link to my reply in the section below) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My thoughts In my opinion, this is exactly the way AI needs to go. In order to properly create safe and real AI, you need to make it think like a human. The next step (That I would like to see happen) is to simulate emotions. Yes. Real (Or as real as you can get with simulation) emotions. This is very hopeful. However, if you can simulate the hippocampus, you can simulate other parts of the brain, right? How about simulating a part of the brain that stimulates emotions? Now you might think this will get out of control. But, if we do it right, (and if doing it right gives the outcome I expect) I think this could be a great step forward for AI. Now, the method I described did not mention simulating the brain down to the neuron. But merely described emulating emotions with deep learning. However, since this technology has been announced, I think it would do well if the two computers in my explanation below were replaced with a simulation of the hippocampus (conscious), and a simulation of the amygdala (subconscious) once our understanding of the human brain, and human emotions has increased. My full explanation of why, and how to create safe and real AI is here: ------------------------------------> https://linustechtips.com/topic/1500586-ai-is-a-big-scam/page/3/#comment-15896485 <----------------------------------------- Sources https://www.humanbrainproject.eu/en/follow-hbp/news/2023/04/17/brain-model-learns-drive/

Unreal Engine 5.2 is just showcased by Rivian and Quixel.(the foliage models were provided by them). Don't think it is a render, lol. It is in real-time. NEW TECH -----> Choas Physics ---> Rocks and leaves one the ground are interactive. (In the demo interactions seem to produce sounds.) Real-time fluid simulation Simulation of Tyre compression and deformation Realistic electric motor sounds which are mixed with the ambisonics of the jungle. (Meta Sounds) New material simulator, SUBSTRATE ---> It allows for mixing of different layers of materials like shown in the demo ->first the opal then the polish then the dust. Surprisingly with no performance losses over the currunt engine shading model. Procedural content generation tool --> It is a tool that helps artists to create detailed environments quickly and easily, compatible with hand-made content. I recommend watching the video.

I've got a IBM/Lenovo x3850 x5 server with PCIe 2.0x16 slots, each built for DDR3 RAM (only on account of it being an old server). I need to install a graphics card for programs I'm running on a ProxMox VM such as SolidWorks (which needs a Win10 VM) and Blender/COMSOL (which run best under Linux). This will require a GPU passthrough (VT-d is enabled for PCIe slots) and graphics acceleration. I'll be doing some pretty extensive simulation in these programs (fluid simulations, large assemblies). I'll list out some of the facts about each graphics card I'm considering: Nvidia GRID K1: 16 GB of DDR 3 RAM Four Kepler-based GPUs 128-bit Made in 2013 GPU Blender Benchmark render time: 584 seconds* Nvidia Quadro P1000: 4 GB of DDR5 RAM Four 640 CUDA core Pascal GPU 128-bit Make in 2017 GPU Blender Benchmark render time: 114 seconds* * = these figures come from a workstation that was built for DDR5 RAM, my server is built for DDR3 RAM, hence my concern about whether or not the P1000 will truly have an edge over the other in my server. Ultimately, which one would be best for my purposes? Thank you.

I've got a few programs like SolidWorks and Blender that I need to run. However, I was curious if running them in a VM using a hypervisor (such as KVM or Hyper-V) would result in significantly slower performance compared to just running that program in a bare metal OS. If it helps, I'll be doing some more advanced simulations (large fluid simulations) and renders that require some higher-quality images (such as SolidWorks Composer, which although not supported works just fine in a VM). I will be using graphics acceleration and, since VT-d is enabled for PCIe, a GPU passthrough would be used to the VMs. I know that it will run slower in a VM compared to the bare metal OS, but I'm wondering if the speed difference will be significant (i.e. will it take something ridiculous like twice as long for a 1 hour render).

Budget (including currency): 1000 euros Country: Netherlands Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: War Thunder, World of warships, Arma 3, DCS, FS19, H3VR (via virtual desktop for quest 1) Other details i have no parts yet, this will be a complete new build, upgrading from 4 year old gaming laptop, i just need the desktop itself and can upgrade monitor later, i already have mouse keyboard, monitor as mentioned, hopefully id like to be able to run 1080p 60hz and with slight upgrade ina few months maybe 120 hz 1440p, im not to good with pc specs and prices so why im posting, ill also be able to upgrade pretty fast once i get a job, this is simply because my laptop is at the end of its life and i cant play many of my games i want to anymore, such as war thunder just got a new graphics engine upgrade. ALSO the motherboard NEEDS a wifi chip as i have no access to cabled internet.

Hello Linus, LTT employees and community, I am in search for somebody who has an AMD Threadripper CPU and can test the performance in my own created universe simulation. As the universe simulation scales very good with the CPU cores and needed not too much of GPU performance, it can be used as somewhat of a CPU benchmark. My I7-4790K can only get 10 FPS for 1 million stars with star gravity off. My GTX 1070TI is between 45-60 FPS. So the CPU is the bottleneck here and the performance scales linear with the amount of stars. However, if you turn on the star gravity, the performance scales to the amount of stars squared. This means, if you get 120 FPS at 1000 stars, you will get 30 FPS at 2000 stars. As my I7-4790K has 8 threads, I think an AMD Threadripper with 64 or even 128 threads would have 80 or even 160 FPS at 1 million stars. So it should be able to handle the max amount of 10 million stars. But then you need a GPU which is 3-4 times faster than my GTX 1070TI, which does not exist at the moment. A RTX 3090 is "only" 2,5 times faster. If anybody does have an AMD Threadripper CPU or any kind of CPU with a lot of cores, you can write me and I will send a Steam Beta Key to you. Here pictures of the simulation to proof that I have indeed created such universe simulation:

Budget (including currency): €6000 -> €7000 Country: Netherlands (I am planning to shop at Alternate.nl) Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: GPU Rendering, GPU/CPU base simulation, VFX work, UE5 Development Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Software that I use often: Maya, Houdini, I render with Redshift (GPU renderer) I need a lot of headroom on things like caching stuff in RAM. Hello! It's been quite a while. I built my last PC over 4-5 years ago and especially now that I am putting it through it's paces, It's starting to show it's age. I want to build an entirely new system. Here's the parts I know for SURE are gonna be in there: Case : Lian Li O11 (wide case, can hold lots of things) CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X GPU: GTX 3090 TI (I don't know which brand to go with yet) I just need info for: A motherboard: I was thinking of the GIGABYTE X570S UD. 2 TB NVME Drive for software + OS (Seagate FireCuda 530 2 TB SSD is what I had in mind) 8 TB HDD for long term storage. (Seagate SkyHawk 8TB) 64 Gb Ram, preferably > 3000 Mhz (I need help with matching RAM to my motherboard, last build I did I screwed up there) A proper power supply. How much power is this going to draw? Cooling: I want to invest in some quality fans and heatfins to cool my CPU with. I hope I provided you guys with enough info! I really appreciate the help since I'm very insecure about the RAM, power and cooling part. Some overhead in power wouldn't hurt since I am running 2 graphics cards, after all. Thanks, Sasbom UPDATE: I went with a DARK ROCK PRO4 I upgraded mobo to GIGABYTE X570 AORUS XTREME. I was only able to get 1 GPU, instead of the 2 I'd hoped for, but it's the MSI GeForce Suprim 3090 ti. I've got 1500W power, so hopefully I can fit in a second GPU in the future. For RAM I went with the CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 64GB (4x16) , it was listed as being compatible. https://pangoly.com/en/compatibility I added 5 Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM fans because my PC is gonna be running LONG. :') That kinda solves a lot of my issues and ensures I won't be bottlenecked in the future!

Simulated Processor - Creating an instruction Set
SilicateWielder posted a blog entry in It's not a bug, it's a feature!
Hello, So the other day, I was bored and thought, "You know what, I want to learn how to design a working instruction set," and thus I have been working out the details for a simulated processor using my own custom instruction set rather than getting some homework done that I really should be doing. Here is what I currently have worked out: Croltex SM8 (simulated processor) specs ------------------------------------ L1 Cache - 64 bytes L2 Cache - 128 bytes L3 Cache - 256 bytes L4 Cache - 512 bytes (Because I want to have L4 cache) Instruction Set -

After never before considering the idea, I've decided to get into (watching) esports. The thing is that there's plenty of stuff for CS:GO and LoL and such. I don't care much for these, to be honest. I would rather watch competitive car sim racing, because that's more up my street. Where can I get info on live races and where can I watch them?

Hi there, I am creating a flight simulation that focuses on the realistic delay due to varied factors. I'm not an experienced programmer or with unity. I have a simple UI element within my game that displays the plane's (UAV) altitude, speed, distance from a base point and the latency. My issue is that the script used for this was in JavaScript and im no expert, so I need help with converting this to c# to get the figures as they update within the game, displayed on screen! Here is my code: var plane : Transform; var b : Transform; public var item2 : GUIContent = GUIContent("Altitude"); public var item3 : GUIContent = GUIContent("Speed"); private var guiSkin : GUISkin; var Alt:int; var Spd:int; var Bloc:int; var latency: float; var Distance:int; var obritalSatellite:int; //var PosZ:int; function OnGUI(){ GUI.skin = guiSkin; GUI.Box(Rect(0, Screen.height-120, 200, 120),"Plane"); GUI.Label(Rect(20, Screen.height-80, 100, 50), "Altitude"); GUI.Label(Rect(15, Screen.height-60, 100, 50), "Speed"); GUI.Label(Rect(80, Screen.height-80, 100, 50), Alt.ToString()); GUI.Label(Rect(80, Screen.height-60, 100, 50), Spd + " m/s".ToString()); GUI.Label(Rect(10, Screen.height-40, 100, 50), "Base"); GUI.Label(Rect(80, Screen.height-40, 100, 50), Distance + " m".ToString()); GUI.Label(Rect(10, Screen.height-20, 100, 50), "latency"); GUI.Label(Rect(80, Screen.height-20, 100, 50), latency + " ms".ToString()); } function Update(){ Alt=plane.transform.position.y; Spd=plane.GetComponent.<Rigidbody>().velocity.magnitude; Bloc=b.transform.position.z; //distance measurement from base to plane var distance = Vector3.Distance(plane.transform.position, b.transform.position); obritalSatellite = 70000; Distance = distance; //delay calculation latency1 = (obritalSatellite + Distance) *0.000003 + 0.120; latency = latency1; } My main issue is converting the function Update to c#. Any help would be ideal, Thank You. Regards, Andre

Ello im building a g34 opteron 6172 12 core cpu base build, i have the d16 mobo and 1080 and 980 graphics cards. I am in need of any experence builders of the models, i am building this to use for simulations for aerospace quantum physics and thermal dynamics simulations mainly, a few planetary here and there. But i want to build this to test and see if i can have a rig that can render 3 to 10 day simulations for a good price. I am open to all hints and tips, its my first opteron build so i listen carefully to all information big and small. if this works well i wish to have a handful of rig running portions of a simulation at once ( separated subjected physics simulation) and just need to figure out exactly what i need to mod in order to get it running and producing a full rendered simulation I would love to here what worked and especially what didnt work for you, im also building a OEM Dell PowerEdge C6145,SuperMicro H8QGI-F and Dell PE 6950 Mother boards to have multiple variables for if one fails

My First topic on the LTT forum, so please be kind Some of you may at some point in time have come across the insanely DLC heavy game known as 'Train Simulator' by DoveTail Games (DTG). It has over $4000 worth of DLC, some of which cost as much as a newly released title. However this is not my point of topic so I will move on. DTG have recently released the successor named "Train Sim World" developed in Unreal's UE4 engine. I expected this would end the abysmal performance of its predecessor which used a 7 year old in house game engine but boy was I wrong! Upon release the steam store page was flooded with enraged users, exclaiming about the extremely poor performance of the game with some of the top end gaming rigs achieving a measly 25-35fps. To be fair, DTG have since somewhat addressed the issue and have made efforts to scale some of its calculations across multiple threads. I will also add that the aesthetics of the game are great, but doesn't help when playing a stop motion game. I'm interested to hear other peoples thoughts on this, even experience on it if you own the game? Have you ever seen a game with poor performance like this before? From what I can tell it seems to be more of a CPU bottle neck rather than a GPU as with my Nvidia 970 it seems changing from low to high graphic presets in the game had little effect on the overall frame rate.

So I have a laptop that I use for Chemistry simulations, and is so slow. The programs I use is gaussian and chemcraft. Take days to do a molecular simulation, and I always wonder if I could speed up by building a new PC for that. What you guys recommend me for those programs. Says a chemistry professor who doesn't know about computer hardware. Ideal budget. 1000$ USD, can overbudget but needs a good reason for it. No case is needed he can recicle a old one that he have from his father. Even myself don't know if this build needs much ram. like 16 or 32.

I'm really into management games where you have a business or economy to control and manage. Played quite a few and I'm looking for some suggestions.

So I am thinking about getting a laptop for engineering applications, modelling and simulations. Programs used include MIDAS GTS NX, ANSYS, Solidworks and some more. Types of analysis are nonlinear static and dynamic time history analysis. So I was looking at this laptop and it caught my attention. Anyone has used it? Do you recommend it? How good is it for my workload? CPU: i7-8750H GPU: Quadro P2000 https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834154877 Thanks.

Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my now ancient quadro k5000 and want to know whether dual gpu's i.e. 2 x p4000's would be more price / simulation time efficient than 1 x p5000? Can currently pick up 2 p4000's for around £700 so would save a significant chunk if its worth it! and does anybody have information on whether spending slightly more on the new gen RTX Quadro's would be at all worth it? again they can be found for decent money 2nd hand. Currently running 2 x xeon e5-2620's + 120gb RAM in an HP z620 workstation. I use Ansys for simulation with an HPC license. This is purely to shorten solve times, not for graphics in design work or rendering, I'm not so keen to move to Tesla's due to their passive cooling. thanks!

All and any recommendations/advice of any sort will be heavily thanked! Okay, so what I'm doing is I'm looking for Computers (Pre-built or custom made for shipping) that can run 3D modeling, rendering, editing, and sometimes simulations. These won't be used for extreme versions of these tasks, however, just some light heavy things here and there with the primary use being normal editing, and other normal tasks (However likely more demanding versions of said tasks. For a summary please go to the bottom of my post. I'm needing help and advice with this as I'm not currently the most proficient person when it comes to computer knowledge as I have only recently started delving into it, previously I only went to the local store and got what looked good for a nice and affordable price (Never really worked all the way through), so I'm stuck on just about every part and I'm starting to almost go insane because of all the details I've learned there are and I don't know what would work best. The price range I have for the tower is preferably somewhere around or below 2K$USD, however, I can go higher to around 3K$USD if necessary. The brand shouldn't really matter for me as long as it's trustable and I can easily find information about them without hassle. For recommendations, I can go for workstations, all-in-ones, and normal towers, basically anything but a laptop. Any advice or recommendations will be greatly appreciated as I'm getting to the point where I'm not mad but on the verge of just wanting to give up, even links to sites that could help narrow my search would help. Just keep in mind that I know little about the technical terms (I know the names of most things, just not how they might affect what I'm using them for), telling me some of the terms that might be important for what I'm doing would also help. Summary: What I need: A pre-built or custom made computer that isn't too expensive and that I can buy multiples of at once without hassle. What I need it for: 3D modeling, Rendering, editing (Photo and video), Simulations. My price range: 2K recommended, 3K maximum. Where I am: I am near the middle of the US if that is important. Why do I need this: I'm actually applying for a large grant to fund a high powered computer lab, so I'm looking to get the budget and what all we would be getting. I will also take recommendations for monitors as that is also something that will be greatly appreciated. For that, I'm just looking for a good high color accuracy monitor that's not over 1,000$USD with preferably a high resolution like 4K (4K is in resolution right? Correct me if I'm wrong).
