How many SSE instructions can AMD do per clock cycle nowadays? A couple of years ago Intel could do 1 per clock cycle and AMD could only do 1/2, which was a huge downer for AMD. If they can now do 1 SSE per clock cycle, they might be back in the game, which would be a really good thing in terms of competition.
On the other hand, I think CUDA and OpenCL are in the brink of changing the whole game. I have a couple of NVidia GTX 295 cards which are doing most of my crunching nowadays -- they are easy to program and they are much faster than any CPUs on the market. BTW, wtf is this rant about newbies? People are just panicking with their coursework -- chill-out man. juha On Wed, Apr 28, 2010 at 21:52, Marcus D.
