I feel IBM hasnt really taken Cell to its full potential and it will probably lose the performance crown to x86 in 2-3 years unless IBM gives the performance a badly needed performance boost. GPUs can also beat cell in some tasks.
- eznet 18y agoI too think that there is untapped potential with cell processing - specific tasks that the cell processors are more adept at performing. There have been some interesting publications about cryptography and password cracking using PS3's cell processing technologies published in the past several months - something you do not see branching out to other such related tasks.
