Intel May Integrate DRAM into CPUs

[Guest]

Mountain View (CA) - When we talk about processor performance, most of the performance typically comes from the depth of the pipeline, the number of cores, the size and the type of the cache or the clock speed.

Looks promising, seems like Intel is not giving AMD a chance to come back.

"In case you are wondering: Yes, it looks like there will be an introduce of a CPU/GPU hybrid."

Tom's might want to hire an ex English teacher... but wait, CPU/GPU hybrid?! I was expecting Intel to make a hybrid chip eventually, but not anytime soon. Can you elaborate on what you know about this?

Well, Pat Gelsinger, you made your decision, and the facts have proven you wrong...

Half Point Now & Eight Points When Completed. Looks good for 50-50% relationship with game card potential.Probably first grounds for working media machine with great reliability.Mass storage & Play TOP End games better than simple games.

Wow AMD is going to get pure ownage soon. Yay Intel. And not to mention the GPU and CPU are merging into one soon hooray. Wow I wonder what Nvidia and VIA going to do when Intel bring this secret weapon out.

P.S.Tom is slow I think I saw this tech leak quite a while ago.

Well, this technology is already being developed by IBM and AMD together. It's called TTRAM (Twin transistor RAM). Intel needs to change its production technology from bulk/CMOS to SoI, in order to make it work.

Eh. You can put a few heterogenous graphics cores on the CPU chip, but have you seen the transistor count on, for example, the GTX280? There's no way you can fit that on the CPU die.
