Intel tests chip design with 80-core processor
Uploaded by: computerworld
Video Description:
Following their march from standard processors to dual-core and quad-core designs in 2006, Intel Corp. researchers have built an 80-core chip that performs more than a trillion floating-point operations per second (TFLOPS) while using less electricity than a modern desktop PC chip.
First described by Intel executives at a September trade show, the chip fits 80 cores onto a 275-square-millimeter, fingernail-size chip and draws only 62 watts of power -- less than many modern desktop chips.

random write/read latencies
by the time we have those cpus, well probably have more ram being available on each mobo.
64bit operating systems can already use like 16 TB of ram, and with good timings and clocks, we can run everything on ram.
of ram your data is still going to be written to the pagefile (virtual memory) because programs and data do not see ram as a destination area to execute themselves, for example battlefield 2 needs and takes 1.5GB of virtual memory space address even if you have 4 GB of ram, ram is just a data capacitor, virtual memory is a program execution destination. another example is vista, it uses 500MB of virtual memory even if you have 4GB of ram.
you could make a decent ramdisk with 8 GIGs
of accessible ram but if the OS cant see it u cant use it
