The IBM Bluechip processor goes at 180Ghz, but it's really really expensive and not available to the public yet.

But the data would be sent faster than it could be cached and read off the hard drive. What Intel and AMD need to do is redesign their processors to get better performance out of the same MHz speed.

snicker? wha?

I'm kind of interested in getting into that nano-tech stuff, sounds like a fun career. Maybe in a medicinal value, someone else can make nano-tech trees that bleed gasoline for sap.

I guess it's possible, but why don't we just use soybean diesel fuel? It is already a proven technology. And you could always try to underclock the Deep Blue processor, but the only REAL value of having it would be to process really complex 3D models of entire cities with all the cars moving and the wind and so on, not to run Word or some other program. :wink:
