Intel lifts lid of 80-core processor

[ricardodegilmonde]

the socket its huge !

[thantawa]

Looks odd!

[seba3001]

AMD and Intel both can produce 20+ cores CPUs, but the problem is to wire them together in an efficient way. And you guys must realize that in the next year, server CPUs (from both sides) are going to reach that number of cores, so quit your bitching.

BTW this video sucks a truckload of d*cks >_>

[sinecurve9999]

I think he means 80 cores on the die, not 80 cores on the processor. Hint: the die is the big round thing that can't fit in a computer case. Down vote!

[MikeRoePhonicsMusic]

Super cool URL, bro.

[budtwuk]

flagged for faggotry

[ColdGripHandle]

with 80 core computers you can render full length animation movies in your garage or living room

[ColdGripHandle]

I have an old 80gig processor just sitting in my closet waiting for the motherboard and OS

[DSRvmv111]

i thought it was a cocking patty

[Ahrisss]

this is a waver with 80 single core chips. oh dear please watch more discovery channel.

[redsucker23]

that looks like a pancake LOL

[appelelle]

thumbs up if you hate twat-faces that doesnt upload videos correctly.

[danthemanzizzle]

so 5 years later?



[kuza261]

it said 80 core with simple set of instructions which means there not really processors there SUB-processors you cant set the affinity like you could on a 4 core xeon

[Teh1337bix]

@kuza261 they aren't sub processors they are processor cores.

[94thts]

Why are people so hyped about this? Just look at GPUs, they often have more than 900 cores..

[cool2040coasters]

@94thts its totally different

[deluxedookie]

@94thts

gpu's are different from CPU's. gpu's run parallel when cpu run in a sequence.

[Coilaman]

@94thts

CPU core is much more powerful than GPU core, so don't compare CPU and GPU. You sound like a total N00B.

[Consumerofknowledge]

You would be surprised what computers these people actually create. They of course, jack the prices to ridiculous levels so the average consumer can't afford one, but....that will be coming to an end in the far future. MWAH HA HA!

[bilashhossain]

80 cores??!!!???!!! when can i buy it lol

[EmilxLollipop]

@bilashhossain 4 or 5 years

[bilashhossain]

@EmilxLollipop wow imagine the games on that thing, but i bet it'll be expensive too lol & i'll be 20 by then!!

[EmilxLollipop]

@bilashhossain nah.. i bet it'll be normal in 6 or 7 years.. btw cpu's become twice as fast every two year.. soo by then is it probably a 200 core or a 80 core with a totally extreme clock..

[bilashhossain]

@EmilxLollipop that's amazing, technology's really taking off

[biplav91]

its a freaking prototype get over it they will make it smaller

[BKsMassive]

@biplav91

its not a prototype.

they use them.

[wade4MV3]

@Typhoon07

hahah

[kght222]

you people do realise that there is more than one actual proc on that die (or normaly would be) if that whole thing were the 80core proc that would be compleatly unimpressive

[Lucario1211]

Imagine the pain of installing a huge heatsink fan, backplate and all

[wisestfoolalive]

80 cores!!

[Typhoon07]

Why is it always a circle?

[vicskyline9]

its a wafer. they cut it up later. it is exactly 300mm

[ewigkase1]

it is do to the manufacturing process when they convert it in to a single crystal using the Czochralski process,

[FRURMELLL]

Now we'll just have to wait until there comes an EXPLOSION of immense gpu's and cpu's.

[PonguigPeopinn]

Abolish silicon chips!

[mikitymike]

Nvidia aslo says that in six years, GPU performance will increase 570 times.

this is some crazy shit.

[ganymedeIV4]

He said "80 cores on this die"

Thats a Die[wafer] consisting of 80 processors.

smaller the Cpu (65nm,45nm) the more then can fit on a 12x12 wafer.

i assume its cheaper per processor to make.

Go do a image search on google for "processor dies" and you'll see what im talking about.

[Zillerz3]

id like to have a huge ass case and fit in that circle in there having 80 processors.

am i right or am i wrong? all i know is that a cpu doesnt look like that lol mine is a 55nm btw dual core

[ganymedeIV4]

I'd make some 22" inch rims and use those wafers as the spinners.

[Zillerz3]

lol make like a separate some kind of wheel holding the wafers beside the case itself

[GeeksRus95]

Put that with the Tesla C1060 and you've got a heck of alot of computing power

[rampageturke]

i'm sorry to burst your bubbles non-believers but this is true, there is a better description of this in the related videos called ''intel tests chip design with 80-core processor'' dont watch this garbo, watch that

[imnothereyet]

DAMN IT! i just got my quad core the other day!

[xsonicbladex]

He is saying that the whole wafer has 80 cores, not each processor it's self.

[bespoke1]

No, the wafer has about 200 chips, each with 80 cores.

[xsonicbladex]

Must be a gpu :D

[Nizm0350z]

the title of this video is retarded

[gfyhdhbyhgj]

How many it heat? What is the heatsink? Air? Heatpipe? Water?

[dasbooterror]

fail on making us go to another site.

[CrdBrdProjects]

its not 80 cores, its just the wafer....

[videofreakcologne]

Yes its a wafer ^.^;

[Iwillkillyou35]

Is he not just saying that there are 80 cores on that wafer he has?

[vinny4punt0]

thats right

[bespoke1]

No, it's wrong.

[mrpcclass2]

PEOPLE:

To see a better FULL VIDEO of this watch:

watch?v=97uSsjjoSNM&fmt=18

[Membrane556]

It's a GPU made from stripped down P54 cores or Pentium ones with SIMD instructions anda ring bus nothing to see here ATI and Nvidia did this years ago.

A Cell will beat this in most general purpose apps while a Tesla will stomp it in SIMD apps.

The most cores on a chip would be the Rapport kilo core with 1024 cores.

The most powerful general purpose chip are Sun's Niagara II and IBM's power 6.

[deathhell77]

well... uhhhh the amd single core still beats its ass of the charts

[Membrane556]

Of course it would in general purpose apps but not SIMD apps since this is a vector processor it's intel's idea of a next generation GPU to replace the aging GMA.

It's somewhere between CUDA and Cell's SPUs.

Intel was trying to be nvidia and failed in the execution.

If they used some special purpose simplified risc or VLWI cores made specifically for SIMD

vs being lazy and reusing an old x86 design this would have been much more workable and used a lot less power.

[Nightowl358]

Yeah. .80, stripped down, simplified cores, but hey, there's 80 of them. . .

[rambow70]

hold on theres a processor with 80 cores????

[therevengeofsaladboy]

There are processors with 128 cores.

They hardly work though.

[innie721]

there are processors with 1025 cores.

[vinny4punt0]

those aren't single processors but computer clusters consisting of several computers

[innie721]

yes it is a single processor.

look up "kilocore"

[theblue64]

Why the fuck do I have to go to your website to watch the video when you could just upload the full fucking video? Flagged

[howboutpete]

site doesn't even work

[Agremen]

@theblue64 Cause intel is to expensive and they suck!

[arranmc182]

well this will not bother amd as every one knows that AMD is cheaper for the same speed intel just make processors and dont look at ways to cut cost like amd and like waht was said in this video its only for simple stuff wow so all the 80 cores are basicly worth less for every day computing

[Procod2player]

O stfu ya stupid fan boy

[arranmc182]

im not a fanboy right now im on a pentium system that i built a few years back intel is good but there processors are just to overpriced thats why i like to use amd now but back in the day amd use to cost a lot aswell

[blue0footed0booby]

depends on your mother board socket i personnally like amd but motherboard pnly nsponsers intel :[ well its time for a renovation! ;]

[DOTISO]

This is not a single processor. It's a wafer that have 80 cores on it.

[clanOT]

nono a wafer is just that, a wafer of silicon. the chip itself is 175mm^2

[DOTISO]

That's pretty much was i meant

[layishevik]

Uniaxial strain, Nickel Silicide, Source/drain selective epitaxial growth, longtitudinal compression, Hafnium Silicate dielectric, Titanium Silicon Nitride metal gates, Silicon Germanium strain relaxed buffer, 9 metal layer dual damascene copper metallization, Tungsten contact plugs, Titanium Nitride diffusion barriers, FSG, BPSG.......Intel is king of microchips

[GHOST3940136]

its 80+- processors on each plate noob

[aditya799]

impossible is nthin!

[luginbillruder]

WOW thats gay. How will they ever fit that in anything. U need like a bus for it.

[AVvodafone]

your mom suck my dick last night =p~

[Membrane556]

Won't ruin AMD it's not X86 or even general purpose.

Only thing it will do is maybe allow intel to catch up in GPU and DSPs.

You'll still need a conventional X86 or PPC main processor in a system using this chip.

BTW there is an existing product very much like this the rapport kilo core which uses many simple cores about 256 to 1024 for DSP like fuctions except you get a PPC core with it.

[thegamer579]

intel it will not ruin amd

[thegamer579]

not intel use a m d

[MacRulesWindowsSucks]

do you know that this chip will ruin amd right?

[Login12349]

wow put that under the hood

[iJuleguy]

This processor is one of the many processors that runs Skynet. In the future, Skynet has full control over the world. We must destroy Intel....NOW!!!

[buzzin92]

lol

[Membrane556]

It's just a DSP that can do GPU work made from several very simple risc cores. BTW nvidia and ATI gpus were at one T flop a year before this.

Only means we might get a third player in the 3d gaming video card market again.

Also think intel's stuff is advanced go research some of the stuff IBM is doing or some of the stuff in Japan.

[Kovenant675]

i'm wating for yottaflop

[miasmablk]

soon we'll have petraflop capabilities
