Will it get over 100 fps on FEAR though?

Does that count as 0.5 Thz? ( wiki) _________________

yes, its half a tera hertz.
If they manage to pull off a working processor at these temperatures, think of what it could do. Like compute decimals of pi and weather forecast....woohoo

that roughly translates to a 50GHz chip....not bad
besides, i thought they had a 608(?) GHz trannie?

Surely this is radio frequency and not cpu cycles? _________________

DailyTech: IBM and Georgia Tech Push Transistor to 500GHz
"Using a transistor printed on a silicon wafer laced with germanium the researchers were able to develop a transistor that clocked in at around 350GHz at room temperature."

htxtp://www.compoundsemiconductor.net/articles/news/9/4/13/1
604GHz trannie
and the 50ghz was inferred from this
Quote: Feng said 382-GHz transistors ultimately will yield 38-GHz microprocessors. That's more than 10 times faster than the fastest processors built into computers sold today, which are 3-GHz. When Feng started this research in 1995, the fastest transistors were clocked at 180 gigs.

Which, as inferences go, is pretty dodgy....but it made sense when i posted it
then again, it could be one of those odd things where 604 really means 246
my brain hurts....
