Squilliam on 03 July 2008
One $200 graphics card (WITHOUT mail in rebate) Delivers 100 GFlops of double precision and 1000Gflops of single precision. One PS3 Cell delivers 260 GFlops single and 20 Gflops double precision. Performance in folding? 3 times higher at least. Cost of system including said card? $700. Cost of PS3? $400. Price/Performance about 1.66:1 at least.
Tease.
