SeaMicro Fabric + MIPS64 Low Power Core?

That combination seems to be a good one. Current x64 CPUs are still much more power hungry than the simple RISC chips.

  1. WHOOPS:

    AMD today announced revenue for the first quarter of 2012 of $1.59 billion, net loss of $590 million, or $0.80 per share, and operating loss of $580 million. The company reported non-GAAP net income of $92 million, or $0.12 per share, and non-GAAP operating income of $138 million.

  2. Double whammy:

    Relative to Sandy Bridge, the new processors have both faster clock speeds and lower power consumption. The standard, mainstream desktop processors now dissipate only 77W, compared to Sandy Bridge's 95W. Low power parts dissipate either 65W (for "S" model numbers) or 45W (for "T" model numbers). Clock speeds range from 2.3 GHz/3.3 GHz turbo, for the 45W Core i5-3570T, to 3.5 GHz/3.9 GHz turbo, for the overclockable Core i7-3770K. The mobile parts come in at 35W, 45W, and, for the top-end Extreme-branded processor, 55W. The 35W processor, the i7-3612QM, runs at 2.1 GHz/3.1 GHz turbo; the 55W chip runs at 2.9 GHz/3.8 GHz turbo.

  3. Relative to this blog, Evil_Merlin has faster replies and lower IQ....

    Get a life. Stop being troll bait. Get out of Mom's basement once in awhile and get some sunshine. There's more to life than your pathetic obsession with this blog.
