AMD Wants to Know What You'd Do With 48 Cores

Brag....
And calculate my brain age

The original C&C had a game speed determined by how fast your cpu was. I would use this computer to prove there is something that is faster than the speed of light, a Nod Light Tank.

Sell it so I can feed my family. Tough economic times.

1/3 want it to go to helping "the children"
1/3 want to do something completely stupid like folding at home.
1/3 want to watch porn.

Someone out there will come up with the 1/1000000 idea that will start a revolution and employ thousands and change the world we know today. To be honest if it goes to one of the first three piece of sh!t ideas that are exhausted beyond even being worth mentioned any more then I would probably shoot you in the face if I had the opportunity.

I'm just saying...

For those of you talking about the i7's 8 cores those are not 8 PHYSICAL cored. You are running a quad core with 4 fake hyperthreaded cores. AMD doesn't rip their customers off by selling them fake cores they wait until they have the real thing, then of course Intel steals the tech from them.

take screen shots of it, post on forums, get HUGE E-PEEN

Convert my HD (2gb each) porn so I can watch them on my Ipod touch.

and btw, I think this CPU will run Crysis smoothie. So don't ask.

Well, It would sure beat Rendering on 2 or 4 cores.

 

[simplyderp]

Hmm.. I have 800 cores.. in my 4870 😀

I'd upgrade my home NAS. Can't immediately think of any reason it wouldn't fit in my mini-ITX case with a 120W PSU...

You still wouldn't beat out multi-core CPUs in a multi-threaded task. 😛

 

[acasel]

I will give it to BLIZZARD so that diablo 3 and starcraft 2 will be released faster....

Are there commercial or professional applications that can make use of 48 cores?

There probably would be user/company-specific applications that can utilize the massive amount of cores, given that they have that tech beforehand.

Become bankrupt from power bill and contribute to global warming at the same time.

unless you live in Quebec, then nobody cares to make the contest compliant with our retarded Napoleonic code (or something pertaining to Quebec's legal system which excludes us from entering almost North America wide contest)
