Intel: Interesting Read, 80 Cores

[bobad]

When is this hitting Newegg.com?

I think they're going to be out in the 3rd quarter.

Of 2012.

I'm down to wait.

/me kills the joke: article says it will never hit the market.

i love anandtech articles. they're always extremely over my head, so i always end up just looking at the pretty pictures.

Pretty Pictures FTW!


80 Cores at what speed though? I wouldnt be surprised if it was 80 cores at 100mz (or less), and they implimented some sort of reverse hyperthreading and split it into 4 reversed hyperthreaded "cores" , 4 "cores" of 20 100mhz cpus Youd get SMP in SMP in SMP!!!! or, RHTSMMMP. Reverse Hyper Threading Symetric Multi Multi Multi Processing. Now wouldnt that be something

Where can i get that trademarked?

I didn't understand a word you just said....but you touch a brotha by the heart.

would it surprise you to hear that it (they) run at 3.13ghz, using only 1v, to achieve teraflop speeds? how about 4ghz, with 1.2v, doing 1.28teraflops??

from the anandtech link splat posted:

The chip can operate at a number of speeds depending on its operating voltage, but the minimum clock speed necessary to maintain its teraflop name is 3.13GHz at 1V. At that speed and voltage, the peak performance of the chip with all 80 cores active is 1 teraflop while drawing 98W of power. At 4GHz, the chip can deliver a peak performance of 1.28 TFLOP, pulling 181W at 1.2V. On the low end of the spectrum, the chip can run at 1GHz, consuming 11W and executing a maximum of 310 billion floating point operations per second.

i like this graph the best: http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=2925&p=2

1ghz at 11W!!!!

*edit: i guess anandtech doesn't like outside sites linking to their pictures...the pic wouldn't load so just visit the link and see it

So... when is someone really nice here gunna buy/nick me one?

I wonder if you beowulf them. If you could squeeze out a yottaflop?
