i know that the EE is the cpu of the ps2 but what makes it so necessary to when you play a ps2 game?
and if the cell broadband engine is so powerful why cant it proses like the EE?
and what about the graphic synthesizer how dose that make the ps3 not be able to play ps2 games

Scientific Computing with Multicore and Accelerators (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computational Science) $56.99 The hybrid/heterogeneous nature of future microprocessors and large high-performance computing systems will result in a reliance on two major types of components: multicore/manycore central processing units and special purpose hardware/massively parallel accelerators. While these technologies have numerous benefits, they also pose substantial performance challenges for developers, including scalab… |
