IBM Previewed Kilocore1025 – CPU with 1025 cores
by Sze | Filed under Computer
When Dual Core CPU is becoming a standard in the industry and Quad Core is coming, IBM together with Rapport, a Silicon Valley startup, previewed the Kilocore1025, a processor with a total of 1025 cores that promises not only to boost speed but also to operate at low power levels. Rapport is already offering the Kilocore256, which provides a performance of 25 GB operations/second at under a single watt of power with 256 processing elements.
But according to IBM, processors with massive concentrations of individual cores may not be that far away as we thought. Rapport and IBM, both members of Power.org, today provided a glimpse at the design of the Kilocore1025 at the Embedded Systems Conference in San Jose. The blueprint showed a central PowerPC that was complemented by 1024 (that is one thousand and twenty four) 8-bit “processing elements” on a single and – according to IBM – low-cost die.

YO I AGREE DAT NIGGER SHIT BE TOO FAST FOR MY NIGGA LEGS TO KEEP UP WITH
Fuck this nigger shit. Niggas and dem hoes be wantin’ 1099511627777-core cpu each a 64-bit clockin’ the 12 GHz niggashit.
Bitches be superconducting to lower that power eatin’ like a motha fucka.
