  Hi Support,
  
  Would Ansys Discovery run on hyper treads instead on physical cores? In the past I have a few issues and first thing which Ansys has support suggested was to switch off hyper treading in BIOS.
  
  I'm looking at a new laptop
  
  E.g. This laptop below has 8 cores and 16 hyper threads. And I have 12 core HPC licence extension will I be able to fully utilise the 12 core HPC ?

  Hello Tim Dukes
  
  Ansys solvers only use physical cores. So it will use a maximum of 8 cores that your laptop has.
