Intel's Gulftown 6 cores comes in Q2 2010

"Intel is narrowing down the launch date of its upcoming Larrabee many-core cGPU.  The company confirmed that it is now on track for a H1 2010 introduction."

 

"Intel is very careful providing any information about its x86-based Larrabee.  What we know, however, is that the device will be based on second-generation Pentium processor technology with the P54C core."

 

"Larrabee is expected to come in multiple flavors with at least 8 cores at the low-end have at least 32 cores on the high-end.  At a clock speed of 2 GHz, the 32-core version could be topping a theoretical maximum performance of 2 TFlops."  

 

Intel and AMD may be radically changing the future of the PC:  http://www.tgdaily.com/index2.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=42457&pop=1...     

 

 

 

Here's one for you (if you haven't already seen it...)  "Fujitsu this week laid a humdinger on Intel by unveiling the world's fastest CPU.  The new chip is thought to be about 2.5 times faster than anything Intel has in its lineup, while also consuming two-thirds less power.  You can put any grandiose ideas of picking one up and setting new benchmarking records to rest, as the "Venus" chip, or otherwise known as the SPARC64 VIIIfx, is desinged for supercomputers. As such, Fujitsu claims the new CPU can process a mind boggling 128 billion computations per second, making Fujitsu the first Japanese firm in a decade to wear the raw CPU performance crown.  Built on a 45nm manufacturing process, Venus comes with eight cores and an integrated memory controller spread across two square centimeters.  Fujitsu says it will take several years to come up with practical applications for the new chip, but that it could see use in pharmaceutical research, astronomy, weather prediction, scientific researching, and Folding@Home while running Crysis (we may have added the last two on our own)."
