Dear Savy,
I think you should ask your thesis supervisor to provide you with the
computing power that is necessary to complete the tasks that you have
been assigned.
That said, I do not think there is any problem in running QE on AMD CPU.
However on AMD CPUs you won't be able to completely benefit from the
Intel compiler optimizations, which may trade-off the money you save on
AMD CPUs, especially if you are getting Intel compiler for free.
regards

Hello everyone,
I am working towards my thesis project where i have to do some dft
calculations. I want to upgrade my system. Currently i am using i5 7200u
processor. Is it advisable to opt for amd ryzen 7 3700x ? Instead of
intel compiler what we can use in amd system? Please help me to get a
good processor for my system.
Thanks In advance,
Savy.
