It's already been shown, though many tests, that 1 SPU can equal or surpass Intel's top single core processor in many tasks. The inter-core bandwidth has been proven at 197GB/s. The link from my percious post shows Intel Core i7 965XE's TOTAL bandwidth (cache, memory, and inter-core bandwidth) is 106GB/s. Plus, it only has 4 cores at 2 ops per clock. Also, I can't believe you talked about running code/apps not written for it's architecture! That's a bit like saying 2.4GHz PowerPPC processor would demolish an Intel Core i7 965XE at Linux written specifically for PPCs. LOL. It's just that the code is written to take advantage of different architectures. |
I would like to see those tests. If you get me ps3, I can also make program for it which runs fine on Xbox(original) and really doesn't run well on ps3 even if you find any expert to optimate that program in anyway but still making it function like original(Of course).

*lots of links about floating point operations on CELL vs general purpose cpus.*

So its not many tasks, but one task? Did you know that computing is much more than just floating point operations and that CELL is crap compared to newest GPUs today in flops? Do you also know why games do not run entirely on GPUs today? Thats the same reason why CELL can just beat current cpus in some tasks. I don't say its piece of crap, but its not really breakthrough in computer science.
@MikeB
I have already answered how. You just ignored my post last time. I did even provide you some pseudocode, but you didn't seem to understand it.
(Btw, tomorrow I publish one of my programs(For you anyway. It has been available on irc for a while already.). Check sig. ^^)
