External CPU ?

[Rotterdams]

"Soon" external GPU's will become a thing.

But what about external CPU's? Because they also overheat alot during gaming etc.

 

Is it possible to do this? Would there be a market for this?

 

It would be pretty nice to have a super thin laptop running heavy games and staying super cool and silent.

Its possible and it has been done on servers and main frames.

 

 

You can have hotswap cpu's in windows(need server datacenter edition for about 5000) and linux.

With 2 blocks coming out? It would still be loud because of the blocks

And you would need to carry the CPU block around to even use the laptop. It wouldnt really be a laptop because you need to use a block to use it

Thats with Sisterboards though, but you could make an extender for it but I dont know why

You can remove the extra cpu when your not using it.

There are systems with cables to connect them.

He said full external CPU, so no internal CPU

So like extended sister boards?

That would be a thing client and you can just remote desktop into a server running somehting like xen.

It might sound silly to use a external CPU and GPU.

 

I also thought about connecting a full desktop to a laptop. So using the laptop as screen with keyboard. But sadly its not possible as far as I can hear lol

It is possible using a streaming service like steam in home streaming.

 

The only external cpu that there is would be a xeon phi coprocessor, but have almost no practical uses outside of extremely parallelized computing.

I have alot of interest in streaming but i usually play online/mmo type of games.

and i have no expierende with the delay streaming brings.
