alpha

[Tasior]

hehehe

znalazłem niedawno taki ciekawyartykooł na tema t procesora 64 bitowego i nie było by w tym nic dziwnego gdyby nie fakt ze to gaztka z 98 roku

jest to procek alpha 21164 na płycie samsunga alpha PC 164LX do tego mają 64 bitowe pci gniazdka na dimmy 128 bitowa pamięć podręczna l3 o poj. 2MB

i cio wy na to ???

[Den]

eee...yyy... Taz :P

[Tasior]

a co to znaczy eee ... yyy ... Taz :P

[Den]

to mialo wyrazic moje poczucie humoru :P tamtego proca chyba nie

ma sesu porownywac do tych ktore teraz sa :)

[Tasior]

no tak ale popatrz na procki z 98 roku ... przy nich tan alpha to tak jak teraz athlonek qrde z 4000xp no nie ?

[Mighn Taghor]

to mialo wyrazic moje poczucie humoru  :P  tamtego proca chyba nie

ma sesu porownywac do tych ktore teraz sa  :)

Tak myślisz.....

 

Ile ci twój liczy Pi do stumilionowego miejsca po przecinku? - bo znany mi komp na 4 takich alfach robi to około 40 sekund.....

[Gość]

AFAIK alpha wypada gorzej od dzisiejszych prockow jesli chodzi o liczby calkowite, a za to bije na glowe kazdego XP czy P4 w FPU.

to mialo wyrazic moje poczucie humoru  :P  tamtego proca chyba nie

ma sesu porownywac do tych ktore teraz sa  :)

I tu się mylisz - zobacz wyniki w obliczeniach SETI - na pierwszym miejscu są maszyny z procesorami Alpha (RISC) ponniżej 1h na WU, a mój kręcony Athlon to liczy 4h, a nawet dłużej......

[wilczek]

ale co wy porównujecie procesory Alpha i Dzisiejsze Xp czy P4 to całkiem inna architektura, zostały zaprojektowane do całkowicie innych zadań.

Odpalcie na Alphie jakąś gierke :)

[libero]

hehe alpha rulez :) Kazdy o tym wiedziec powinien !

Niestety compaq sprzedal ja intelowi a on ja zabil i stwozyl na jej oparciu itanium :( :evil:

A pozatym RISC to potega :) Wystarczy popatrzec jakie cuda robi sgi :) I przejzec spec tech :) np:

Octane 2 :

Single or dual MIPS 64-bit R14000ATM 400MHz, R14000ATM 550MHz and 600MHz 2MB L2 cache

 

 

Poprostu wymiata :) Oczywiscie w odpowiedznich zastosowaniach :) Do grania sie nie nadaje :) Ale nawet quake 2 jest na Irixa :) Wiec mozna sobie pograc :) ciekawe ile jest fps ?

Przy okazji roznych prockow:

Details on Sony's PlayStation 3 chip

 

 

IBM, Sony, and Toshiba have wrapped up the design for the inner workings of a mysterious new chip called "Cell."

 

The new multimedia processor called "Cell," touted as a "supercomputer on a chip," is well on the way to completion, IBM says. As previously reported, the chip could end up inside the PlayStation 3, and elements of its design are expected in future server chips from IBM.

 

The design for Cell has is nearly complete. Soon the chip layout will be handed over to engineers in manufacturing, who will craft samples. Meanwhile, the engineers have been testing various elements of the processor, both separately and together, before the manufacturing unit connects them inside actual Cell chips. At this rate, commercial production of Cell could come as soon as the end of 2004.

 

The processor's design is still under wraps, but the companies say Cell's capabilities will allow it to deliver one trillion calculations per second (teraflop) or more of floating-point calculations. With integer math, it will have the ability to do more than 1 teraflop, roughly 100 times more than a single Pentium 4 chip running at 2.5GHz.

 

While details remain vague, Cell will differ from existing microprocessors in that it will have multiple personalities. The chip will not only perform the heavy computational tasks required for graphics, but it will also contain the circuitry to handle high-bandwidth communications and run multiple devices, sources say. This would be possible because a single chip will contain multiple processing cores, or cells--an esoteric design concept that's rapidly emerging from the labs, according to sources. Communications features expected to be in the chips might also allow devices to form powerful, peer- to-peer networks, some analysts believe.

 

Cell will likely use between four and 16 general-purpose processor cores per chip. A game console might use a chip with 16 cores, while a less complicated device like a set-top box would have a processor with fewer, said Peter Glaskowsky, editor in chief of Microprocessor Report. Some of these cores might perform computational functions, while others could control audio or graphics. But not everyone thinks this approach is groundbreaking, given that some processors already use inter-chip multiprocessing. "I just don't see that Cell is revolutionary, except in its marketing impact," Glaskowsky said. "
