Quad cores to arrive in 1Q 2007, with IntelÂ’s Kentsfield and AMDÂ’s K8L

soon people will get made fun of for only having one 'puny' little core

Looks like PCP&C will be launching a 1.5KW PSU pretty soon...

Actually, Intel is trying to push their CPUs using total wattage instead of procesor speed (since they lost on that front). AMD is following suit so as to not be cast in a negative light.

SO, we may eventually be able to use sane amounts of juice to run our rigs... once the GPUs fall into line. Until then, "Fire up another nuclear reactor, boys! The Green and the Red are bringin' out their new line-up..."

Great, super computers, 4 cores, 4 GPUS, 20jigawatz of processing power, what could possibly go wrong with that.... oh yah, the electric bill....
