May 11th, 1992: Nathan F. Myhrvold to Bill Gates
"Topics for System Strategy"
My guess is that the following things will happen to Intel:
Is this good for us? The answer is YES! That this is an extremely good thing for anybody in the x86 world except Intel https://t.co/Wv0STa84ht
Liquid cooled Power Shelves finally: UQD08 and 1RU… MGX specs in a nutshell… forgot to ask if an OCP version was in the pipe (cooling, pipe, you get it 😅) #Auras#Chicony
@bzogrammer@nigwil I was in Intel selling it, and I agree with you on most of your point except one : no software change was really required, only may be io_uring in storage space. The real problems was: only one supplier and nobody needed such performances or memory capacity in 2015…
@thoefler Btw few things are curious:
~22k nodes x 2 CPU x 690W = 30.3 MW, 10MW in the other components is a lot.
Also 2 CPU/node x 8 nodes x 16 blades x 2 frames x ~90 cabinets = 46 080 CPU or 23.040 nodes vs ~22.000 announced. At this scale the « ~ » impact a lot the numbers.
@thoefler « 1.34 million ARM CPU » ? I guess it’s a typo because slides shows +22.000 nodes, 2 CPU/node and 304 cores = 13.3 million cores. Did I missed something ?
@jukan05@I_Leak_VN It will be interesting to check if meanwhile DDR6 is released, LPDDR will not take the lion market share. Density is on par or almost, same for performance (little below MRDIMM) and much better performance/watt.
