I am currently running matlab on a Intel Pentium 32-bit 2GHz 2GB laptop with Windows XP and Matlab is very slow. I want to get a desktop PC set up to run it and was wondering what people might recommend in terms of hardware. The Mathworks recommendations are somewhat vague beyond highly recommending 64-bit systems. For Matlab applications such as data and signal processing with large datasets, are there any recommendations for how many cores, how much RAM, and how much speed Matlab can effectively utilize? I'm have a tight budget, and would like to invest in a good set of hardware but not overspec. Matlab gurus please share your thoughts!
