Correct me if I'm wrong...but it seems that the original CELL patent was pretty accurate when it came to the performance number and makeup of CELL..
The patent said that a Processor Element was made up of 8 APUs (@ 32Gflops each) plus one PPC PU, which is pretty much what we got...
Well 8*32Gflops=256Gflops and that, indeed seems to be the performance STI is talking about with a PE...
So *IF* the 1 PE=256Gflops part is correct then is it possible that the BroadBand Engine part is also correct??
According to the Patent, one Broadband Engine has 4 PEs!!!
If so, one "BE" would be a Teraflop chip, no??
