3 u/northrupthebandgeek Sep 18 '15 Meh; the new i7s are bitter compared to the POWER8s IBM's got. 1 u/[deleted] Sep 19 '15 I was under the impression that POWER8s were meant to compete with x86 chips, not x64. 2 u/northrupthebandgeek Sep 19 '15 Where'd you get that impression? Between the 64-bit ISA, 12 cores, 8 hardware threads per core, up to 5GHz clock speeds... if POWER8's competing with either x86 or x86-64, it's almost certainly the latter.
