IBM Cell Processor
IBM is doing a Cell processor demo, creating a high definition 3D model on the fly. I am talking with the chief architect of the IBM Cell project about the power of the Cell processor compared to the fastest Intel and AMD processors available. For certain tasks as encoding video, decoding video and generating 3D graphics, IBM’s 9-core Cell processor is about 10 times faster! That is simply amazing, and supposedly the Cell processor will run Linux and be available from around October this year.
