On-CPU Peltiers From AMD?
Hack Jandy writes "Remember those people who lived on the edge and put peltiers between their CPU and heatsink (or your favorite beverage)? A peltier is a devices that gets cold on one side and warm on the other when an electrical current passes through it. It looks like there is talk that AMD will actually incorporate some of these devices on the CPU according to Xbitlabs. AMD already incorporates some degree of the peltier effect with it's Silicon on Insulator."
Languages evolve. Deal with it. What are you some sort of grammer exceptionist? "Its" does't follow standard grammatical rules for contractions. It's evovling towards actually fitting general rules in this case. Isn't it better that way? There is however, another possibility: perhaps you just like being an ass with your superior knowledge of useless things? IMNSHO It's better. Quit with the knee-jerk reactions. You understood what was meant, and is that not the general purpose of the english language?
Apple used peltiers on the Powermac 6100... those PowerPC 601 where hot !
Apple, as aways, is 10 years ahead on some fronts, and 2 years behind on others...
