So, could I play F.E.A.R. on maximum settings on that?

And even then you'd need to patch it.......

Re: Proper overclocking
no it isn't a chip like an amd or an intel. it's a more simple device, like the ones they use in cell phones.

Still i knew the first Half Teraflop (single chip) calculation would be made by a GIT.

Nah... 3.7 ghz to 500 ghz...  A measly 13,788.9% improvement.

Let me think about that deal for a few... seconds.



only $2,999,999.99

Mainly for the cooling system, too.

But at 4 degrees above absolute zero, you'd be able to use it to chill your beer. Of course, you're in trouble when you reach in to get it and the bloody in your hand is frozen solid, but that's the price we have to pay for convenience!

 
So, could I play F.E.A.R. on maximum settings on that?

OK, that's enough exaggeration. FEAR runs beautifully at max settings on my rig, and it wasn't exactly top of the line when I built it a year ago. No overclocking or SLI, either.

Not bad! Runs at 350Ghz at room temperature, which is pretty impressive by itself!

if they make a consumer version that'll go 20 ghz i'll be happy

10 Would be more than sufficient for any home use. To be honest, there are very few utilties outside of 3D Rendering that put any particular stress on a 3Ghz card, though some big RTS games are an exception to that rule. 20Ghz would be nice for rendering, I render at around 1 second of film per hour on average, so more speed is always good ;)

then, using the same tech, i'd like a 5ghz graphics chip, with a 2ghz chip dedicated to physics processes.   maybe AI acceleration too.'

then i might be able to play crysis on high settings...

LOL Well, I managed to play Oblivion ok without realising I'd got my AGP port running at PCI speeds on my X1600, just knocked it up to work at a proper 8x AGP speed, and the boost is incredible :)

Yeah, physics chips are more decoration at the moment, give them a few generations, once theres a unfied 'physics' language, like DirectX, and I think those things could be great, Graphics card handles the drawing, Physics card throws all the junk around and all the CPU has to do it support AI and hold everything together. That's probably better than having a single chip running at incredible speeds and filling half the case with cooling equipment.

if i had the chips i described, i'd probably be able to handle realistic water physics

You could probably do so psuedo fluid-mechanics stuff, I think the PhysX card can already do that to a certain degree.

I always remember the promos for Dungeon Keeper 3, Bullfrog said they hoped it would be possible to use Lava as a weapon by being able to channel it and make reservoirs etc. They never implemented it, but something like that would be very easy to do with a physics card. And yes, with a Graphics card at that speed, realtime animated procedural textures would be a doddle :)

Although you can do that (channeling) without a physics card anyways, you just can't use proper fluid dynamics but something similar and more constrained.
