Is there any patches for coupled model 5.15 for windows clients?

I think that all versions of the TCMs were created with a new compiler version which doesn\'t have the \"Intel inside\" problem. Perhaps also the compiler options that caused the Intel/AMD problem aren\'t used.
The patch really only applied to slab and sulphur models.

The older version of the Intel Fortan compiler didn\'t correctly recognise the AMD CPUs capabilities, hence the patch was created. The newer version of the compiler does recognise AMD CPUs correctly, and hence the patch is irrelevant for those versions.
