jewtel just launched a 22 core (44 thread) xeon why are these

Because they can run 11 4 thread apps at the same time.

games are the only popular software on the PC that benefit from massive parallelism

maybe when machine learning takes off many core CPUs will come to PCs, or maybe not

maybe desktop/laptop CPUs will forever stay at <10 cores and will just keep getting more SoC crap integrated into them (gpu, networking, etc)

Because of virtual machines, database servers, etc. I have a pair of 10 cores in my workstation at home.

>desktop apps
Because desktopplebs refuse to bitch to their vendors about parallelizing their apps

Honestly, what I want is 1 powerful cpu, able to run legacy applications/applications not suited to multi threading, and one cpu that is a standard, that has a fuckload of cpus.

maybe a low end one has only 16 threads, but costs next to nothing, and a high end one has a hundred and is an arm and a leg. I don't care, using a fucking gpu be it cuda or opencl is so goddamn sketch if it will even work i'm willing to just say fuck gpgpu and move toward an industry wide standard, and I know a real cpu will be able to do this work.

They've had 24 cores before.

I've had an idea how to achieve that, but without a big cpu manufacturer's test data, I can't figure out if it would work (and they sure as fuck won't give that info out)
I could patent it, but am too poorfag for that

It's a scam, X86 has no competition because everyone that could theoretically compete with intel has no X86 license. They're just abusing their monopoly to charge $5000 per server CPU.

If there were competition 22 core models would be around 500 to 1000USD
