Re: Fastest Processor till date
umm... let me see...
none of these, sun showcased an octacore about an year ago, which is faster than all these, but was not a desktop/server processor, was something for themselves. I'm sure there are processors faster than that one....
as for you, ask which is the faster desktop processor, and you might get what you want.

Re: Fastest Processor till date
There seems to be a tie between the QX6700 and the umm...X6800. Thing is, QX is better when it comes to multithreaded applications, but those that depend on raw speed take advantage of the higher clock speed that the X6800 offers.
Also there are the Xeon's that are used in the Mac Pro and some Dell machines. Dual Core + Dual Processor, good combo.
I think those two are the fastest processors out there. Though one might have heard of IBM's 500Ghz test run...
Dont worry, the cost of getting a fast processor along with some huge amounts of memory and all that would definitely run your bill above 3-4 lacs.
Btw, what proof do I have that you will actually be buying this proccy? Or is it just for kicks sake....

Re: Fastest Processor till date
Hey, is the IBM Cell, that was showcased at CeBIT hitting the market soon, I guess that would help you.
For the uninitiated, the CELL consists of 9 cores, and according to Digit, it eliminates the requirement of a Graphics Card for the most demanding software in the Market Right now.
I sure would like to see how much it would cost. Since this is aimed at normal Workstations and not Servers.

Re: Fastest Processor till date
Core Quad extreme is the fastest available in retail. It costs around 54K.

Thanks for that information anyways.

Sorry to spoil ur dreams but a 4 way quadcore system doesnt exist. Nor does a 2-way quadcore processor SLI motherboard exist  .

Re: Fastest Processor till date
X6800 with EVGA nVIDIA 680i based motherboard & 2 8800 GTX with SLI ready 1KWatt PSU (or 2KWatt) & coupled with raptors will surely make u sweat....in performance & also ELECTRICITY BILL!!!
