New newsletter (tS7) - Might be a dopey Q. but... 2005-05-18 - By DAVID STUBBS

Try : the various motherboard and cpu sites. Lots of details there. www. JNCS.com is another place to look.
You don't have to be a gamer to use hard and fast hardware. Hard and Fast hardware applys to the good use of TrueSpace too in many ways..
Read this if you like : It is a clarification and some future talk To clarify the significance of the conversation. I thought it was inspiring to consider possible uses with hardware, code that interacts with hardware and the applications functionality which uses both.
Look at the new IMAX technology and how it is done and how it relates to the processing of film. Think of TrueSpace and how it is done and how that relates to the processing of code towards the production of each type of graphic artists work.
I agree. There are technical aspects in working with computer graphics
which if understood may or may not be benificial. I leave it up to the TrueSpace developers to figure that stuff out in the specifc sense . Besides they are in the know even if reaching, but that's R&D. It is why TrueSpace is here. Innovative thinking because they thought about it and put the possibility of it together with the hardware of the time. Look at it today ! Look at the Hardware today - 2 - 8 mgs of ram is not the norm anymore as it was on the 286 and 386. and before P's came out .
5 years from now maybe everyone will have multi processors. Who knows but
the code developers will have a lot of fun with it I bet. Invert this thought and you have multithreading. The code developers will have a lot of fun with that too.
If both can be used by TrueSpace they will need a calculator to figure things out
In general I was referring to a board which had more than one processor. Also to this I was thinking of possible technology. It makes sense to me. I think you may have been referring to multithreading. It is code which commands the processor time to do certain tasks. There are variations on its implementaion. This was why I suggested a Truespace to take over XP or other O.S. It means finer action between the application and the processor. However, the action may be good enough as it is. R.&D. advances.
Thanks for posting , interesting
P.S. If I find the board I will post the location of where to find it.

This might be kind of a stupid question, but, when I'm research systems (I want a new system in the near future), how would I look for this?
My main "thing" is modeling/graphics, IOW I'm *not* looking for a "game machine", I'm looking for a modeling/graphics machine.
Roman mentioned the NVidia 8600 (I've been pleased with my current, i.e. old, NVidia GeForce2), or at least, the 6000 and 8000 series NVidias.
But, are you talking about something similar to "dual CPUs"? Sorry but I've never heard of "multikernal" or "cell" processors, so I don't understand exactly what is meant here, or how to go abut getting one (or finding out *when* I can get one). I had been looking into the 64-bit things but given the info here, I don't want top jump into somehthing that will cost as much yet be inferior (meaning, not do what I want it to do).
So, to look for "multikernel/multicell" processors in, for example, tomshardare.com, is that what I type, i.e. "multikernel processor"?
If you or anyone can offer any online references, I'd really sppreciate that, because this is totally new to me.
TIA =:-) !
