    SPARC64 VIIIFX = world’s pWnin’ Processor.

    May 15th, 2009 / No Comments » / by sT*rchi1Ð

    Fujitsu opened this year’s Fujitsu Forum conference by kicking Intel squarely in the groin, debuting a new processor that’s 2.5 times faster than anything the CPU giant has on offer, and one third as power-hungry.

     

     

    Called the SPARC64 VIIIFX (sexy codename: “Venus”), this eight-cored slab of processor can crunch a staggering 128 gigaflops (128 billion calculations per second) . This is amazing, but irrelevant to most of us—in case you haven’t already guessed from the processor’s size and Fujitsu’s proud emphasis on its floating point calculation abilities, the Venus is destined to be clustered in supercomputers when it eventually ships, not plugged into your next custom PC build.

     

     

    Fujitsu held the title of the world’s fastest CPU ten years back, but has since then been floating in the backwaters of Intel.

     

    It looks to be used in a supercomputer at Institute of Physical and Chemical Science, RIKEN, Japan. The intended peak performance of this supercomputer was not mentioned, but tens of thousands of Venus processors is just waiting to be used before the computer will go online before the end of 2010.
