Contemplating...

It’s time I get my third tattoo. It’s going to be a small bar code with my birthday. I’m thinking near my wrist on my left arm. Anyone have any ideas?

Nvidia’s David Kirk on the 7800’s multiple clock speeds @ bit-tech.net

We asked David what the three visible clocks did. “You’re making the assumption there’s only three clocks,” was his cryptic reply. “The chip is large - it’s 300m transistors. In terms of clock time, it’s a long way across the chip, it makes sense for different parts of the chip to be doing things at different speeds.”

“The chip was designed from the ground up to use less power. In doing that, we used a lot of tricks that we learned from doing mobile parts. The clock speeds within the chip are dynamic - if you were watching them with an oscilloscope, you’d see the speeds going up and down all the time, as different parts of the chip come under load.”
