Re: Where is 10 Ghz CPU?



Gremnebulin blithely blithered

Didn't intel announce they are forgoing the pursuit of clock speed
becasue of heating issues,
going for the multicore approach instead (which AMD are already doing,
of course)

Higher clock speeds have been deemed practically impossible, hence the
multi core innovation.
