Our New Machine, Pandora

[nubie]

I looked up the processor (Cortex-A8) and I read that it has the ability to scale in speed from 600Mhz to 1Ghz+. Cortex-A8 info.


They probably can reach that speed using specific implementation of C-A8 with over voltage and adequate cooling. Don't try 1 GHz on 6xx MHz device (imagine overclocking your 3 GHz Core2 duo to 5 GHz).

That'd be nuts! :rolleyes:

Pfft, why imagine, it has been done [he types on the 2.8Ghz Conroe-L that is a stock 1.8ghz part, on stock cooling and voltage.]

The 45nm cores are good on air well past 4Ghz, so yeah given stable enough silicon anything is possible. And I thought ARM didn't have problems with cooling (Less transistors, fraction of a watt power dissapation)

I am just thinking of the fact that there is one design for ~650mhz and another design for ~1000mhz, I don't know which one we will be getting, but I wouldn't reasonably expect more than 700mhz (he says as he realizes that is more than 3 times the speed of his best overclocking GP2X)

700Mhz isn't bad at all ecspecialy sense it's a handheld even as a computer that isn't all that bad for it to be that portable. B)

I am not going to dignify that with a response.

waiting for pics/news/etc is driving me mad (writing this from half way up the wall) :blink: I might get hypnosis to blot out all memory of the Pandora project!!!!

/3 for everyone who checks on it at the library, school, work and the net cafe.

and LOL, that was funny.

I think about 175,000 of those were me.
