    How many of these do they have to make before they get one with no damage/errors that is completely functional???

    1 because they have 100% yeild by designing a system in which any manufacturing defect can be bypassed – there are extra cores to allow for defects.

    Exciting times for datacentre people but I am not a big fan of the internet turning into the internet of datacentres of large websites and services

    It's good to see that people can still keep AMD and Intel on their toes. Though of course ARM has been doing this for decades

    Be Careful on the Internet! I ran and tackled a drive by mining attack today. It's not designed to do anything than provide fake texts (say!)

    What is the hashrate of one of these,,,,,, everything to get miners to look elsewhere.

    Indeed. Rate it at 95% of nominal capability and you have plenty of room to play with. Or just put a great big * by the figures.

    *nominal values based on perfect fabricobblin' - your experience may vary considerably.


    Anyone know if this can play Crysis?

    Most likely if you program the cores and such after GFX and CPU instructions and more as well all in one... then it could probably run that poorly optimized game fluent in 16K Resolution at 200+ FPS

    How many instances of Crysis could it run!? 1 for each of its 400,000 Cores

    is this amazing? same die area with slightly more than twice the transistors. Intel claims that 7nm TSMC is not pure 7nm is simply WRONG.

    Exactly what I was thinking, I should imagine they are cost prohibitive though and I doubt that it'll run Nicehash lol
