the slow motion looks awesome xP

[TheHomelessCripple]

it was a metaphor. The parallel tasking was the multiple guns shooting at once, while the single tasking CPU could only shoot 1 ball in succession.

Might be done if we use MISD (Multiple Instructions Single Data)

[Milkyway2223]

Some stuff can't be done parallel - for example. the calculation of pi. Each step needs the result of the step before it. Stuff like this would be EXREMELY slow on a GPU. (Unless you want to calculate it a thousand times - then GPU would probalby be done before the CPU, because it does those thousand calculations at once, and not after each other, like the CPU)

[Korsos]

I dont really know, probably because it would be too expensive? No idea. But do u know the Computer Titan? search in wikipedia, but it has 18688 gpus and cpus, while the gpu do 90% of the work. if you understand what im trying to say.

Could some one explain why we don't use Parallel Processing for everything.

[PlynPodPrad]

Wish PS4 presentation had sth like this ^^

Because Intel ruined PC gaming by pushing hardware that was totally inappropriate for graphics. They just can't stand anyone making a profit on a PC sale, even if it's on a component they don't even make.

CUDA need improvements :D

[demoniack81]

because it looks cool.

So, nVidia makes an ugly ass Mona Lisa. GJ! Buying AMD. LOL
