But will it improve my framerate when I play solitaire?

None of you guys will be getting this because IBM’s stuff is not for just anyone. Their hardware is focused on big buisnesses. The Cell processor from Sony’s PS3 is also IBM property and that was the only CPU they ever considered making available for PC enthusiasts which has still not happened and I wouldn’t wait on it either.

Lol @ aXXo

@coldsaber
The processor speed isn’t the only thing that matter.

That thing looks beautiful, btw.

Cool looking paper weight.. I would really like one though, intel cant seen to get past 3.6 ghz. AMD cant seem to get past 2.8 or 3.0. Come on IBM, seel me one for free.

One of these and a better graphics card, of course.

Maybe this is what I need so I can play S.T.A.L.K.E.R. on decent settings…

Yeah this chip might be the next generation of CPUs, but then IBM has always been in front of everyone else as they specialized on server CPUs ages ago, even though it would be quite cool to see IBM back in the PC business with a proper UNIX CPU. Also it seems like Intel is actively working on 65nm chips as well, so it wont be long until Intel will show us a prototype with 8 cores and 4ghz per core that is made in 65nm. Anyway let’s see how it all evolves , especially when silicon free systems will be finally introduced.
