Well I've always been a big fan of AMD but they've been slipping back so I've switched to Intel processors for some of my machines. But it seems they're back in the game. According to AMD, they will release a 12 core Opteron processor in 2010 and a 16 core in 2011!
This is just incredible! Read the full article HERE. |

That is a lot. Imagine what programs and pc video games will be able to do, if they are written to take advantage of all those cores.

what could a 12 or 16 core CPU possibly be used for? lol. it will probably takes years for software to be released that can actually utilize that many cores too. a huge technological leap forward though. |
