nah. to me, it's just a density play - nothing wrong with that,<br>
but not really interesting. if you have small-memory, cache-friendly code,<br>
you'll be happy, but putting 6 cores on the same old tired memory<br>
is not what I'd call an HPC solution. iirc, the 6-core chips are also quite big/expensive.<div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c"><br>
