The date is jan 2003...

LOL, look at the 5.2ghz prescott, HAHA.

I am surprised that they said nehelam back then.

SITUATION CRITICAL: CORE MELTDOWN IMMINENT.

Just imagine the heat dissipation. People will blast The Inquirer for this, but back then they were just regurgitating what Intel was touting.

Nehalem is still in development; slated for 2009 release. Might be a whole different animal by now though.

This Prescott has been heckling his secretary since "Prescott" Core's had been conceived.

ol :lol: , never be surprised about things being "really old".

lol...thats alll i have to say

Believe it or not Intel Does have a ~10Ghz CPU will release.
Its called a Q6600 because if you do the calculation they've achieved the Nehelam limit (2.4Ghz x Quad(4))=9.6Ghz Equivalent ??
am i right or what?

The first Nehalem is supposed to appear at 9.60GHz

Otherwise 10.64Ghz Has already been achieved
(2.66Ghz x Quad(4))=10.64Ghz Equivalent ??

I bet if AMD hadn't been handing them their butts for the past few years, we would have had a 5.2 ghz prescott, dissipating 500 watts of heat...

Thank goodness for competition!

Ya... you're right, but that's a pretty cheap way to get it.

 

[lewbaseball07]

soo whats the deal on 2007...i heard ddr3 going to be on intel chipsets?

what else....like 4xxx series core 2 duo....4mb cached 6 series....

what did i miss?

Isn't the 4x4 with 2 K8L Chips just another way of getting a (8)Oct-Core?

K8L< Will be AMD's Crowning achievement in the last few years besides being the first on Docket with a 64-Bit Native CPU series
So 4x4 on K8 Arc isn't the Golden Child, but with K8L, 4x4 Will show its true colours, Oh yes With R600 and AMD 4x4 Dual K8L Rig will be the "Lion of the Jungle"

Nehalem was originally going to be the next P4 architecture. Obviously not anymore.

Nehalem also sounds like some kinda gun from Half-Life 2. Totally kickass.

ok

anyway, i don't think you can say that 4x2.4ghz equals a single 9.6 even if you were joking, because, i don't think my x2 3800 will perform like a 4ghz single core, especially on single threaded apps. Now if you have 2 threads, then maybe it would, but i dunno.

You're kidding, right?

Of course, I've been around THGFourms too long to be serious about 2.66 x 4= 10.64Ghz

Any and All THGidiots(including me) should know that 4Cores @ 2.66Ghz Means X4 the processing capacity, not X4 the speed :roll: .

 

[m25]

Holy sh!t, don't do these things any more, I almost had a heart attack. I am waiting for a 2.2GHz X2 4200+ and the idea of a 10.2G CPU made me sick. :lol:

 

[elpresidente2075]

I was hoping that that was the case... :lol:

Yes, that way they got almost to a 8GHz netburst CPU; the Pentium E 965 (2X3.72GHz)

I meant that he was joking, but yeah, it would have been nice to see performance that added like that. A linear performance increase by adding more cores... Isn't that the idea behind reverse-hyperthreading? Or is that just a big joke everyone gets a good laugh from?

 

[CaptRobertApril]

Oh yeah, well, I'm angling to get a 2xX5355 quad-core system so that's gonna be 2.66GHz x 8 = 21.28GHz.

 

[djplanet]

m25 just coded :lol: .

 

[CaptRobertApril]

m25 just coded :lol: .

Oh, and did I mention that I'm gonna OC in liquid nitrogen to 35GHz? :lol:

Hey, that sounds like fun! Better make a video of it and put some funky techno music behind it. [/THG video reference]

at least you can wrap virtual fish with the dinquirer

Guess it's this; if one was to make say a dual core that works a single large core, he just has to (roughly) double the number of execution units, width of data buses extc. Why the heck should he split a stream of date, calculate the results on different cores and then remerge these data :?: :!:
hardware implementation of reverse HT would give the same results as actual software multithreading implementation, ~80% more performance instead of 100%; nothing special.
