Fastest Processor

IBM has recently introduced their new line of products, the fastest processorin the worldmade ​​their latest z196. The chip is designed for the fastest supercomputer and has aclock speed of 5.2GHz. Unfortunately it we would not be able to buy this product, because its not just hundreds of dollars, but millions of dollars to get this processor.

IBM z196 usesCISC technology inarchitecture in which there are 1.4 billion transistors on a chip the size of512 mm square. Has more than 69Core with the ability to process 50 millioninstructions in 1 second. Supports up to 3TB ofmemory using Memoryraim technology. The chip is fabricated by using technology 45-nm PD SOI. The chipalso delivers super fast 64KB L1 instruction cache, 128KB of L1 data cache, as well as private 1.5MBL2 cache for eachcore.

In addition, features co-processors canbe used to performcryptographic operations. In addition,a 4-node systemthat will use thischip also comes with19.5MB of SRAM forprivate L1 cache, 144 MB forprivate L2 cache, 576MB eDRAM forL3 cache, andthe latter 768MB eDRAMcache for level-4.

These chips use at least 1079 instructions are slightly different, in which 75 instructions can be used to millicode, 219used for the execution of millicode, andan additional 24 as a function of conditional execution on millicode.
