I had heard heap about how sinewy the Cell central processing unit is , but all those gigaflops and nicknack did n’t mean a whole lot to me . Finally , I ’m starting to get a clear picture of what it can in reality do . In a presentment at the “ COOL Chips VIII ” show held by Toshiba in Yokohama last week , a Cell CPU frame-up decrypt 48 SDTV solution MPEG-2 television streams simultaneously . The videos were then thumbnailed , tiled , and exhibit at a resoluteness of 1920 x 1080 . There ’s more likely , though — of the eight “ SPE ” signaling central processor inside the Cell chip , six were used for TV decryption , one for video end product , and one was left wild . For those that may have missed it , Sony plans on putting a Cell central processing unit inside each and every Playstation 3 .
