You are very correct I am wrong it would over flow only, I do not know how x86 works and I do not know the IEEE 754 floating point standard and I do not know how x86 implements IEEE 754. I also do not know how simulators use the hardware.
Nvidia CUDA cores? Can I run APS on CUDA cores without doing anything special in software tweaks? I never knew that APS would use the GPU on its own....please correct me if I am wrong.
Without knowing IEEE standard and how x86 implements it, I wish to know how these different hardware would affect the simulations of analog circuits (Spectre/APS, etc), also, EM simulations. The number of "cores" on AMD is double that on intel, but, there is significant difference between the two that makes AMD not really "double" that of Intel. On the other hand, I do not know that Cadence has its simulators utilize the GPU for calculations. Let alone the vast majority of the broken software industry.
Can I use GPU with APS? If yes, how? Just install it? Which is better intel or amd? which path should I try? any one out there that knows the best way to go home earlier and get things done sooner?
thanks for the help
