IBM announce that final design has finished on the chip that could power the PS3...
IBM engineers today confirmed that they have wrapped up the design work for the new āCELLā processor, a joint venture between themselves, Sony and Toshiba and believed to be the power behind the Playstation 3.
Touted as a āsupercomputer on a chipā, the design means that it will soon be handed over to engineers in order to craft a selection of samples. At this rate production of the chips could begin as early as winter 2004.
Specific details on the chip are being kept a tightly guarded secret, however the chip is said to deliver 1 trillion operations per second (1 teraflop), roughly 100 times the power of a Pentium 4 2.5GHz.
What differentiates the chip from existing microprocessors is the ability to perform multiple tasks at once, not only the heavy computational tasks for graphics, but it will also contain circuitry to handle high-bandwidth communications and run multiple devices.
What this means is a chip encompassing all of our entertainment needs, similar to what Sony was saying about the Playstation2!!!
