Author: Intel on Tuesday unveiled its fastest enterprise and high-performance computing chip ever as part of its new Xeon 7500 series. Based on the company’s Nehalem architecture, Intel says the launch represents the largest performance leap in Intel Xeon processor history, with an average improvement of 3x across a range of benchmarks. To put it into perspective, the No. 1 chip makers claims data centers can replace 20 single-core servers with a single Xeon 7500 processor series-based system and never skip a beat.
“The Xeon 7500 brings mission critical capabilities to the mainstream by delivering the most significant leap in performance, scalability, and reliability ever seen from Intel,” said Kirk Skaugen, vice president of the Intel architecture group and general manager of Intel’s data center group. “This combination will help users push to new levels of productivity, and accelerate the industry’s migration away from proprietary architectures. We are democratizing high-end computing.” Read the rest of this entry »

As they sometimes do, another “inside source” has decided to don their feature-obscuring trench coat, find a spot in the corner of a parking garage where the shadows cover their face just so, and make with the blabbing. The topic? Call of Duty 7, which will apparently be known as Call of Duty: Black Ops.
The most shocking revelation to emerge from this leak in Activision’s patented Info Pipes comes in the form of a change to the traditional Call of Duty format. Instead of sticking with one time period, Black Ops is set to weave its yarn through multiple battles that fall under the umbrella of “recent history” — with locales like WWII, Cuba, South America, an Iranian embassy in London, and the present day being explicitly mentioned.
Meanwhile, in an attempt to strike before the zombie bubble inevitably bursts, Treyarch’s reprising its ever-popular Nazi Zombies multiplayer mode. Unfortunately for the Nazi Zombies – who, based on their fortuitous mix of controversial political affiliation and Read the rest of this entry »
There’s a ton of great freeware and open-source software in the online world today. That statement should be a no-brainer, especially if you’re been reading these application roundups over the past year and a half or thereabouts.
However, that’s not to say that every single application that you install on your PC–including your operating system itself–is immediately minted in gold just because it passed your personal, “do I need this?” test. That’s no fault of your own; In fact, it’s half the point of the open-source movement to begin with. Industrious users think of new ways to use a piece of software or, rather, new add-ons that they can build into a particular application. This transforms the common application into a forked project, which itself can become the source of inspiration for future spin-offs from an even wider range of users Read the rest of this entry »
Let’s forget for a moment that developers have yet to really tap into the potential of multi-core processing. Now that you’ve tossed the wet blanket aside, close your eyes and picture not one, but TWO Intel hexacore processors running in tandem. Such a setup would equate to 12 physical cores and 24 CPU threads of computing power, and one badass system.
We won’t even talk about the dent this kind of configuration would put on your wallet (no wet blankets, remember?), but will mention that if you want to build one, it’s entirely possible. EVGA this week unveiled its Classified SR-2 motherboard with — drum roll, please — dual 1366 sockets. And yes, it Read the rest of this entry »
