What Would You Do With 48 Cores?

Here’s a chance for US customers to let AMD know. In a blog post on blogs.amd.com/work, John Fruehe kicked March off with a great new contest. Customers can submit a short essay, submit a video or write a blog telling us what they would do with 48 cores to help change the world. The winner will be chosen by an esteemed group of AMD marketing professionals.
