IBM shows off Cell prototype blade server
IBM apparently showed off a prototype of a Cell based blade server to some folks at E3 last week. The prototype was called the Cell Processor Based Blader Server and featured two Cell processors with two chips of 512MB of XDR DRAM. The demo showed the processor running at speeds up to 2.8GHz. Here’s an interesting quote from the article:
“If operated at 3 GHz, Cell’s theoretical performance reaches about 200 GFLOPS, which works out to about 400 GFLOPS per board,”
