FPGAs are too slow for that. I think you can get the clock rate up to about 600Mhz, but that is only for very small portions of the chip. Otherwise you run into

- rcxdude 6y agoYup. If you just want a CPU, use a CPU. an FPGA is a terrible substitute, and generally you only want to embed a CPU on them if you are either developing a CPU or you want a not very fast CPU as an addon to a design which is already using an FPGA (and generally for this nowadays the vendors make FPGAs whith a CPU on the same die, because it's so common and frees up quite a lot of the FPGA fabric and power budget).
