> I am interested what makes you say it "provides computational grunt comparable to an i7 for a few milliwatts" I've been quite interested in Green Arrays, but I'm quite sure that's basically nonsense. The Ga144 can do lots of interesting stuff, but comparing it with an i7 is ill adviced. If for no other reason than that you have to provide your own dram interface, while the i7 typically comes with that in the form of chipset support. The Ga144 can do md5, but I'm not convinced that it can do it better or equivalently than 4/8 i7 cores: http://www.greenarraychips.com/home/documents/pub/AP001-MD5.... In short, I think such a claim is misbranding the Green Array chip, setting potential users up for disappointment and at the same time selling the chip short. |
