Intel's futuristic 528-thread monster CPU may mark end of an era as chip giant looks beyond x86


Designed for DARPA, Intel’s RISC-based 7nm chip can hit a theoretical bandwidth of 1TB/s

Intel has unveiled a mind-boggling new chip that uses optical networking technology to pack 66 threads into each core, rather than the standard two. The result is a monstrously powerful eight-core CPU with 528 threads.
Revealed at the Hot Chips 2023 conference, the 7nm prototype CPU is designed to churn through massive data processing workloads at 1TB/s. It’s the first mesh-to-mesh photonic fabric that uses silicon photonic interconnects to link chips together.
It was designed specifically for DARPA’s Hierarchical Identity Verify Exploit (HIVE) program, according to The Register. This program is looking to build a graph analytics processor with a novel architecture that can process data at lightning speeds without consuming excessive levels of power.
