Prototype 80-core chip...

2500x1600 DX10 gaming with Quad Nvidia G92's, Intel Core 80 Duos and 4GBs of DDR3 1200

Anyone have a plutonium reactor in their basement to power the 10K watt psu? I think THAT build might finally be able to tackle crysis lmao....

It's enough to tackle a super crysis.

 

[Ste]

Screw Crysis.

It Could probably run at least 20 instances of SMP Folding At the same time.

 

[b1gapl]

Yea, by the time we can fully utilize that stuff, Crysis will be like Pong.

But I'm up for folding with several instances of SMP, and getting like 40k points per day.

Intel Core 80 Duos

umm, "duo" in "core 2 Duo" actually means two cores.
Core 2 Duo is an upgrade of the Core Duo

 

[Pinscher]

what do you mean 300 amps?

If you watch the second video, the guy shows a power cord and says they each supply 50 amps and there were 6 of them connected.

So it would be like Core 2 Octo, if they stayed with the Core 2 architecture. Actually octo means eight. But they'll figure something out.

man thats one big psu. cant wait till they have those things avialible for home use in like 5 years. crysis 2 should be out by then

 

[b1gapl]

lol...Why would you want a giant PSU, when we're trying to head towards, energy efficiency.

 

[veg1992]

but then theres core 2 quad... which is quad core but uses the "core 2" so it would really be core 2 octo..... unless they restructure the archeture.. wait thats Penryn/Wolf so its gonna be core 3 octo atleast
