360 CPU and Cell are fairly equal according to Dave Shippy

No one needs to read past your ignorant 9 core statement to know that you don't even have the slightest clue as to what you're talking about. How about doing some research on the Cell before spewing out number some idiot post on the official PlayStation forums. SPEs are not cores and they most certainly don't all run at 3.2 ghz the Cell is an asynchronous processor. If your ignorance was any greater you would choke and die on it. Multiplats look better on the 360 because the system was designed as a gaming platform first and formost and was build with developers wishes in mind.

 

your a very funny guy..IF you would have done research your self , you would have indeed known that the SPU's are indeed CORES

I GUESS you know more about it than

Dr. H. Peter Hofstee, Cell Chief Scientist and Cell Synergistic Processor Chief Architect

"The use of multi-core processors, such as the IBM Cell Processor" you can't be a multi-core processor with only one Core

One of the Multi-Core sessions will be led by Dr. H. Peter Hofstee, Cell Chief Scientist and Cell Synergistic Processor Chief Architect, with the IBM Systems and Technology Group. Hofstee joined the IBM Austin Research Laboratory in 1996 where he worked on the world's first 1GHz CMOS integer microprocessor. In 2001, he was one of the founding members of the joint Sony-Toshiba-IBM design center in Austin to develop the next generation of microprocessors for the broadband era. Dr. Hofstee received his Ph.D. in computer science from Caltech in 1995 and was on the faculty there through 1996.

"Dr. Hofstee's participation in the conference is a huge plus for the industry," said Dr. Winthrop Smith, leader of the Multi-Core Processor Tutorial. "The cell processor will affect all players in the digital entertainment, enterprise computing and semiconductor industry sectors. Dr. Hofstee will be able to share his unique insight with conference attendees."

 

dr. Hofstee say's they are Core's..hmm who is right you or the:

 He can call his shit what ever they fuck he wants, but they are not cores... The Cell itself is a core that has one PPC and 8 SPEs.  We can argue over this bs all day and never get anywhere, but a multi-core system isn't a CPU with some specilized "processors" on it...

yea let's just ignore the man who designed the "D@MN chip itself"

 

did you design the chip?

did you ?

i tend to think he know's more about his D@MN CHIP THAN YOU DO
