insomx Premium join:2003-01-26 Canada 3 edits	WOW Sweet! I wonder how many GHz, or Teraherz? EDIT: "A single teraflop is one million million floating-point operations - or intensive mathematical calculations - per second, and is about 100 times faster than the most powerful desktop computers." So, 70.721003.4 = 24044.8 GHz !!!! WOZERZ! If you played a game on that, wait, you wouldn't be able to because it would go so fast! EDIT - Again! "It has been designed to include an unprecedented number of different processing units - 65,536 in all - and is expected to reach a staggering 360 teraflops when completed" Umm, WOW! 3601003.4=122400GHz, Holy cow cow!

Roop join:2003-11-15 Ottawa, ON	reply to insomx uh no, because your game would use only one of those cpus and it would probably be slower than a standard computer because it wasn't designed for playing games.

bmn ? ? ? Premium,ExMod 2003-06 join:2001-03-15 hiatus	reply to insomx You calculation is assuming that the processor cores are only doing one operation per clock cycle... Regardless, it would be tempting to port and load Distributed.net on that sucker to get a killer keyrate. -- Statistics never lie... But liars use statistics. Viva La Fee' Verte!

That still doesn't make any sense. If that was the case then - 1,000,000,000,000 (million million) 360,000,000,000,000 Hertz 360,000GHz The hertz rating is stupid in this case anyway. We're talking about PowerPC CPUs here and it is likely to ignite those stupid Apple vs. x86 flame wars. The PowerPC clock speed wasn't disclosed or I haven't dug far enough into their website so I don't know what it is. -- I triple dog dare you to click this.
