Afternoon.
Any idea when your going to be playing with these new puppies?

Doh, Joe I spelt directhex wrong lol - can an admin do a sneaky edit

These could come in handy at present at work. Send a free sample and I am sure we will tell you if they are worth stocking or not I am sure Jo wouldn't mind a sample to
Steam: (Grey_Mata) || Hexus Trust
Ditto
I want a sample as well
I dunno what I would use them for at home. Maybe a little bit of folding @ home to help the hexus team jump up the tables, thats if folding can be accelerated by them.
Several for my underground base wouldn't go amiss, either.
World Domination is a demanding business.
Well it is and it isn't. Modern fabrication processes are technically capable of handling a LOT more transistors than we put down onto them (an order of magnitude I think). The problem is with us - we can't design and (most importantly) validate that much stuff and get a product out of the door in a competitive amount of time.
However, something like this is a lot of repeated cells so a lot easier to verify if you approach it in a sensible way. You still put a hell of a lot of effort verifying some of the higher level stuff such as the L2 sharing and rest of the busses, but I bet throwing in ECC wasn't that costly. Well, evidently it wasn't, otherwise I can't see why they'd do it!
will they play ARMA2 above 30fps? is al I need to know
Will ANYTHING ever manage that?

But for what it is we are doing, we still find its often the overhead of shifting the Market Data that is the killer, if you've got a correlation matrix style problem that requires 5GB+ of correlation data, the performance of the CUDA system we last tried it on (295 iirc) was just not as good as a high end more expensive CPU, but effecting the total system cost by a few % when you take into account an SSD RAID.
I'm sure they have a market for it, its just I can't see it in most Trade Finding or classic Risk engines in the financial world.
