wbmw, Re: I used the floating point unit as an example. Intel used to make 287 and 387 discrete FPUs, but eventually integrated them onto the CPU. After that, the FPU design became part of the usual CPU design. I see the same thing happening with GPUs.>

And in P4 did not the FPU beat at a different rate than the IPU?
