What software companies are saying

"The performance improvements we've seen with our software on the Intel® Xeon® processor 5500 series are very exciting for ANSYS customers, who benefit directly from faster turnaround for engineering simulation. We have benchmarked speedup of more than 2 times relative to the previous generation processors for ANSYS Mechanical* and ANSYS FLUENT* software, and roughly 1.5 times for ANSYS CFX*. This kind of speed and scaling is critical to customers who want to consider higher-fidelity multiphysics simulations and improve the productivity of their engineering process."
—Barbara Hutchings, director of Strategic Partnerships at ANSYS, Inc.
