i dont want to add fuel on fire but .. before in one site i read that the Cell have one main Core & 7 virtual .. idont know if this is true but maybe someone here know what this is mean.

 

The PS3 Cell has 8 cores(1 PPE & 8 SPE's). 1 SPE has been disabled too improve yeilds when making the Cell chip. So the PS3 has 1 PPE & 7 SPE's that are useable to the PS3 as a whole

 

 SPE`s are not cores, we went trough that shit already.

A core can work independantly, the SPE`s cannot as they NEED feeder data from the PPC core.

thats mean Cell have one main Core right ?

 

 

Nope 8 cores. PPE & SPE's are all cores.
