Perhaps there is a better thread for this, but is there any news on general availability of Knight's Corner/Intel MIC?

Star War Sex Parrot posted:Probably not any time in the near future, if I had to guess. It's dependent on Intel getting their 22nm 3D tri-gate process perfected, which Ivy Bridge seems to be the first commercial guinea pig for. Thats unfortunate, was hoping for a 75W supercomputer. Video cards take so much power... edit: Upon looking that up again, did I imagine 75W?

theclaw posted:Late 2012. Expect power consumption and theoretical floating-point performance similar to Kepler. If nVidia's roadmaps are to be believed then Maxwell should blow that out of the water a few months later? IPP/MKL integration would be much easier to deal with than CUDA however.

dpbjinc posted:I would like to point out that Thunderbolt does suffer from the same security problems as FireWire and ExpressCard, in that any computer that has the ports enabled and automatically loads drivers for new hardware can have its memory read and/or altered by a malicious device. It's not a major issue, since it only affects non-server systems that need full disk encryption, which are a vast minority of systems out there, but it is something to consider for organizations where that would be an issue (i.e. DoD and friends). In other news if you open up a computer and plug in a PCIe card you also get DMA access. And if you solder a different bios flash chip in you can bypass a boot password. DMA and guaranteed bandwidth is the entire point of those protocols.

Install Gentoo posted:Firewire did this too. Also I'm pretty sure this could be done with PCMCIA and ExpressCard on laptops! Just imagine the security vulnerabilities of my currently set up MBP with a thunderbolt to expresscard bridge and two firewire expresscards installed! (all this to run 3 machine vision cameras off a laptop - someone needs to release a thunderbolt to PCIe bridge yesterday)

Alereon posted:-E series CPUs exist solely for niche applications that are heavily multi-threaded or dependent on memory bandwidth, which really isn't a lot of things. Those are he applications that make the world go round though. Intel probably figures Sandy bridge EN/EP will be fine until haswell so there won't be anything to downgrade to the regular E part. Or something.

Alereon posted:Almost nobody runs those applications on their desktop computer though, which is why it's a pretty tiny niche. Which is why I mentioned the EN/EP xeons. They won't hit until around the release of Haswell, right? That'd be around when we would see ivy bridge e; if ever.

movax posted:The consumer SKUs fall off relatively quickly, but they guarantee availability for products coming out of their embedded group, and I imagine the server SKUs may enjoy a little longer longetivity as well. For example, Intel told us we can buy embedded SKUs of say the i7-620 for at least the next eight years. And SNB-E is still the highest end consumer hardware. As discussed earlier IVB-E and related xeons won't be out for quite a while so there's plenty of SNB related processors still being sold. As for embedded, Intel will still sell you Pentium 3s if you want them.

InstantInfidel posted:You're right, there's nothing wrong with it. They just chose some very esoteric units for that and a couple other charts they had, and I definitely believe that they could have gotten across the same point much more succinctly and equally as effectively by linking to some of those charts as sources rather than dropping one in every couple of sentences. Regardless, it's a better article than I gave it credit for. Watt hours are not an esoteric unit, have you ever looked at a power bill?

WHERE MY HAT IS AT posted:Where's a good starting point to learning about various CPU architectures and how they work? My program is more focused on the software side, and we learn the basics of CPUs and how they work (like I know about logic gates and binary adders and APUs and such), but I find it all very interesting and would love to learn more. Any good resources besides signing up for summer courses at school? Whats your major? If you have a computer engineering program there should be a juniorish level computer architecture class that should require you to write your own CPUs in verilog or something along those lines. If you're CS you might get to count it as an elective.

wargames posted:these things require silicon right? So probably using their 14nm+++++++++++ node so might not be terrible. Yeah current LTE-A modems use 14nm: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/wireless-products/mobile-communications/xmm-7560-brief.html Cellular modems usually use older nodes so I'm not sure why delays in 10nm screw them over. Unless it was designed for 14nm equipment that is not going to be available because the 10nm stuff isn't online?

Methylethylaldehyde posted:5g stuff needs 10nm or better because of the hilarious power requirements needed to drive the system. A 5g SOC is like twice as power hungry as current SOCs, and almost all of it is in the actual modem. Same with the base station stuff, a LOT of the gear is so close to cutting edge they desperately need the extra 40% power savings in order to avoid having the telco racks sound like the mid 90s 1U pizza box servers. Its infrastructure stuff so mid 90s 1 U pizza box server should be ok right I didn't realize the power density was that much higher for 5g, but I work with the slower side of the cell industry.

jisforjosh posted:Mesh on low is actually the "try hard" help you see people thing apparently. Mesh affects rendering distance of certain objects but they supposedly changed the way the setting works from BF1->BFV. I think on Low, certain buildable coverage is not rendered but players and vehicle models are. Ultra settings for pve, lowest usable settings for pvp. For another example; until a month or two ago in overwatch running below 100% render scale and on low settings would increase the size of the team color outline on players which can help a lot with target recognition. Overwatch also renders a lot of extra “stuff” on higher settings that isn’t actually there; usually it’s just in spawns but sometimes you can see through a plant on low settings but not on high. Tournaments often (and LANs almost always) enforce uniform graphical settings for this reason. For example epic requires max settings to be used for fortnite tournaments.
