GPGPU is the challenger! Can the Cell take on this challenge?

 

 


I agree on it, I just made a study on GP-GPU which is very promising. But GPU are still not that flexible as SPU in Cell. And please compare Cell to something from 2006.

New Cell which should arrive this year may change the game again (32 SPU, 4 hyperthreaded Power6or7 Core)

 

Its unfortunately not that simple, GPUs have simply got huge economies of scale and their development is extremely rapid. This year we will have 2 TFlop+ GPUs with more advanced compute shaders and they will each likely cost far less than a single one of those new Cells.

 



Tease.

well, if we must continue, I know for a fact that some companies use GPUs to do their calculation needs because they are cheaper and faster than Cells for what they need done. Cell is not always the answer if you are good enough to code for anything.



Sorry but we all got eyes, PS3 games look better.

K2 makes everything on 360 its bitch, now you got Uncharted2 and God of War3 coming. Graphically 360 is inferior get over it.
