The world's fastest processor clocked at 500GHz

Researchers from IBM and Georgia Institute of Technology have successfully collaborated with the world's fastest-growing processor chip, reaching speeds of up to 500 GHz in a temperature environment of -232.7. poison.

This fast speed of 500GHz is considered 'super horrible' when the processing speed of today's fastest commercial computers is only close to 4GHz. The work is part of the ultimate speed limit exploration project of silicon-germanium chip (SiGe).

The SiGe processor chip structure is almost the same as the standard chips in today's computers, but it is added to the rare element Germani to achieve faster speeds and lower energy consumption. However, adding Germani to Silicon will make the chip's price increase slightly, so this SiGe chip only exists in a few computers.

This chip can only reach a maximum speed of 500 GHz when the temperature is lowered to a shockingly low low of -232.7 degrees Celsius, and at normal room temperatures it only reaches the maximum speed. Maximum is 350 GHz, ie 350 billion calculations per second. But it is clear that this is also the hyper-speed model when compared to the fastest chip, only the speed of 3.8 GHz is being sold today.

Ted Williams, a project scientist, said that this SiGe chip will be prioritized for future space and defense projects before commercializing the consumer market.
