Intel demonstrates Larrabee

Reported by on Wednesday, September 23 2009 8:00 pm

Intel has finally demonstrated its much talked about, but little seen discrete GPU, Larrabee at IDF 2009. Interestingly, the demo ran a ray-traced version of Quake Wars with a Gulftown 6-core CPU. CNET have uploaded a video of the same. An older stepping was used, but sadly not much more information is available. Larrabee is still due to hit stores in 2010 - presumably challenging ATI's HD 5800 and Nvidia GT 300 series. Reference: CNET, SemiAccurate
