That is one big number

 

 Quote:
The first chip to pack more than two billion transistors has been launched by silicon giant Intel.

 

The quad-core chip, known as Tukwila, is designed for high-end servers rather than personal computers.

 

It operates at speeds of up to 2GHz, the equivalent of a standard PC chip.

 

It marks the latest milestone in chip technology; Intel released the first processor to contain more than one billion transistors in 2006.
