Future for CPUs?

Question

My teacher said that developers have come up with a new material for the CPUs that will send them up to 8ghz within a year or two. Is this true?? What is the future for micro processors?

Answer 1

not
reed this you will learn what you need to know

Answer 2

GHZ amount is not important
For example IBM has a super processor for smulating weather forecasts or smulating the efects of a nuclear bomb and its ghz is 2 . There is no direct relation between GHZ and perfomance .Of course the higher will be better But there is a temperature problem with CPU s first they have to solve the problem an they are trying to find a way to cool them down.
I heard that some scientists at compac labs made work a cpu at 500 mhz but it was cooled down to -100 or under it before . So it is not impossible but it will take time
In my opinion CPU architecture is much more important than clock speed And also cache memory is too important for a fast CPU .They control the Random Access Memory modules
If you put your computer 1-2 gb of Ram and want to see the full performance you have to add a CPU with high cache memmory if you are using INtel
Contrary to Intel , AMd uses a different technology and in AMD Cpu Ram s are not controlled by cache memory of the CPU
Adding high cache capacity makes hard to cool the processors
ANd all the imrovements increasing the temperatures.

Of course there would be 8 or more ghz speed of processors in the future as I said before compac achieved to increase up to 500 ghz clock speed of their special CPU s but that was a prototype as you know we can not use such processors.
It will probably used for army or scientific needs.

Answer 3

I think the near-term future will be in adding more cpu layers. For instnace Intel is working on an 80 cpu chip. In this way you can gain teraflops or Petaflops of processing power power.

Answer 4

i dont think so!.. 8.0ghz is too much . currently we are using 3.6 or some thing in 3.... within one year or two i dont think we will be on 8.0 ghz. but can't say any thing. feature of micro processor is bright in this field................
