Well for most games they use dual core so the 100 core cpu would use 2% of availble power.
Doesnt sound so good anymore, on the other hand FL Studio does have multi core fuctionality. 100 cores would actually be over kill.

These are enterprise grade CPUs, not intended for consumer use. I wonder if they will even be able to run a Windows machine, does Windows have the executable for these processors loaded in?

No. And it probably won't, ever, unless Windows/Server start supporting anything other than x86 and Itanium.

this processor can be use on the device like router or switch , or maybe the next gen game console ? but it was good if someone program it and it can be use on the desktop so we don't have to be limited on the oldschool x86 architecture .
Most likely not for end-users, but for the server market.
Probably uses CPU's similar to the ARM processors (If it isn't equipped with ARM).
It's not hard to understand, ARM is WAY more energy efficient than x86 and x64 technology, and now on 40nm might be much more energy efficient than current 65nm models.
Intel only stepped into the energy efficiency boat with the Core2Duo, and later the Atom series.
Their servers are still far from energy efficient. Even their Core i-line, though powerful, are not very efficient,or recommended for regular office tasks!
It would cost a company 1/3th to 1/2 more on energy bills to run a Corei7 in the office compared to running a lower clocked Core2duo system.

[citation][nom]kansur0[/nom]I severely doubt that Autodesk will be modifying any code to utilize this number of processors. Then you have the 3rd party developers of rendering plugins wringing hands at the thought of charging even more for multiple core rendering packages.Also...don't they mean Q4 2009? Alot can change in one year. AMD and INTEL won't ever reach 100 cores in CPU tech but if they don't have a working demo it will just end up being one of those obscure chips that the general consumer has never heard of.My call is server chip at best. The only other hope is for Mac to choose this chip as the new CPU in it's MacPro's if they don't like the deal they have with Intel.That's my call. Mac picks up this chip and severs ties with Intel.[/citation]
1) Apple, Mac, "Pro", server,..., "at best" ...........there is a reason for 4 thumbs down. Networking people / Server people do not respect apple products for those respective tasks. Google Appletalk and discover why TCP/IP is de facto.
2) Networking professionals are not 14 year old kids jumping on the latest fads. When you design a network for people, for money (not fun), you want proven time tested technology ( not old tech just trustworthy tech).
3)Intel is one of the best things that ever happened to apple and they need to hang on to it like dear life.
I hope this product works as is claimed because everyone like cool shit. But people shouldn't look at a number like 100 or 6 or 4 or 1 and jump of the roof begging for it to run crysis. I mean don't get me wrong it's great if it does and it makes it's way into sub 500$ market. But there is so much more to CPU's than just speed, power per clock cycle and number of cores. To correctly judge such a thing you need a X page pdf with detailed tests, schematics and analysis. X increasing exponentially the farther you get from something common like say Penryn. There is no arbitrary scale for such things: that is why I wrote above "not old tech just trustworthy tech". From a trustworthy company too.

If you were current on tech news you would know that intel has had a working 80 core cpu for over a year now (prototype.)

a lot more cores to do a lot more math. I dont think it would take on Intel/AMD anytime soon.
What makes you think Intel/AMD havent thought of putting hundreds/thousands/gezillion... more cores on a chip?
x86 architecture is a lot more complex than just doing (A+B=C) a hundred times in parallel.

I hope if they do start giving out the chip that they do some benchmark so we can see what these chips can actually do. Wonder... hmmm

Tilera has been around for several years now. This is not the first processor they've created. For those wondering, yes, it can run Windows. these chips are a simple modification of their Tile64 processor, which was targetted at high-end corporate networking as a NPU. The processors are very capable and very energy efficient. Whether or not they'll take a shot at the consumer market is yet to be seen to heard...but it'd be very good for consumers to have a new player in the market.

[citation][nom]daniel266[/nom]WOOW we want to know price and other question is about the socket of this thong is just for servers or can it run a windows like others i want it for render im sure 3dmax will like the 100 core edition[/citation]
it has no socket. it has a BGA package, meaining it's soldered on the board

Are these x86-instructions or just generic compute cores? If they're just compute, no one will care except maybe Reverse engineers.

Let us know when you get some prices and benchmarks on these CPU's.
I've been thinking about upgrading so I would have to run pretty quick. On the downside the app will need to be able to take advantage of a multicore CPU.

[citation][nom]archange[/nom]Hmm... Nice. Is it just me or it's shopping time for nVidia?![/citation]
They are in a better position than nVidia to compete directly against Intel. If Intel did in fact license them to use the x86 instruction set, I'm sure there's a clause that voids the license in the event of a selloff of the company.
[citation][nom]asjflask[/nom]Ok so... I've never even heard of this company...[/citation]
Most people haven't...doesn't really mean anything, except that you don't keep up with technology as a whole.
