AMD Shows off 24 Panel Eyefinity on DirectX 11 Graphics Cards (VERY SEXY)

[Jager]

ever consider that it is a server class processor which wont be dealing with the bottlenecks of home machines? not to mention the so called choke point of processor to memory (north bridge) has been moved to on die on both amd and intel giving 4+ gigs of transfer per second now on the i7's. so no having a multicore processor with over 4 cores isn't stupid, its what the server world and the video word and the high end number crunching and stats heavy worlds.. etc etc. have been asking for for decades. strong parallel processing to handle multiple read/write computations at once. something that home computers with the latest versions of both amd and intel socket architectures can handle bandwidth wise.

 

why do you think there are eatx mobos with 4 individual processor slots on them along with each proc having its own dedicated memory slots.

 

just because we dont use much of the raw processing power our home computers have, doesn't mean server/enterprise solutions dont need it. hell i am not surprised they are doign so many cores AMD with their opteron line has been killing intel in the server class market against the xeon until intel overhauled it to use on die memory controllers and much larger on die cache.

 

the only reason we as personal pc users do not have multicore solutions as standard equipment is because no one is coding for them to be used properly. a few developers have, but the vast majority of games and productiviy suites work with 2 cores. video rendering and photoshop as well as maya and a few others do leaps and bounds better the more cores you throw at them, because they need the raw processing power to crunch numbers.

 

the way things are going the bottleneck will be and is to a great extent the non solid state harddrive, being that SSD's are out but are expensive, means that bottleneck will also be fading out. once chips hit the moores law limit you will suddenly see every software package be coded for multicore usage. but now that there is no reason a typical home user doesn't need the power.

special steve i was reading at a college level when i was in 3rd grade i may not show it on here since this is the interwebz and i dont care how my grammar looks as long as it readable....

 

 

 

 

and AMD also has a 6 core out may go with that instead of a 12 core since i expect the 12 core to cost more than my computer and all the other things i have combined..

 

 

and i just saw this

 

AMD's 12-core chip will contain two 6-core processors on individual chips in a single processor package, McCarron said. That is a more reasonable goal than including 12 cores on a single chip, which can be expensive to manufacture.

that sentence made no sense

[jazzy]

Just because you read at a college level doesn't mean you understand it at a college level!

I read Lord of the flies at 5th grade, does that mean I should be in college?

If you buy a 70" monitor and don't insure it, you are one dumb motherfucker.

You should stop trying to pick fights in the goddamn tech section.

agreed.

 

anyways... i know with my plasma tv, it was originally designed to run as a computer monitor anyways, so not only do hd shows look great, but so did a computer when my dad hooked it up to it. honestly, i would just stick with something simple like that. you save a buck, and the thing is massive as it is.

im not im asking wtf his sentence means.

 

and hes a nvidia fanboy saying ati and amd are shit. he needs to learn nvidia isnt always better than ati.

uhhhhhhhhhh did you misread my sentence? I never edited it and I don't see anything about even being a 3rd grader.

 

edit:

Iirc whenver its a nvidia vs ati flame battle I always stick to my opinion of nvidia being a hair above ati

ok it was akuras that said that i did not realize it was his at the time and though it was yours since the grammar/reading/all the other shit wasnt even directed toward him.
