...Intel apparently has an update to its 80-core processor that was first presented at the 2006 Fall IDF conference. The processor, which was clocked at 3.1 GHz at IDF, has reached 4 GHz, while retaining the original 20 MB of SRAM... According to Intel, the 80-core, 100-million-transistor-die is rated at power consumption of just 98 watts (at 1 TFlops).


I don't know if that article had this info- but news.com did. That 80 core CPU is just a research project where it is NOT x86 compatible and was done for purely "research" purposes to test core-to-core communication methods.

Not even another Itanium!
