      Or is it a G400, modded for use on the sun's surface?

          there could be room for 4 more gpus, what a waste, i think i will wait for the 8-gpu version, hopefully it wont cost more than 50$.
          This sig is a shameless atempt to make my post look bigger.

            Looking forward to a release by Matrox. Been waiting for over 3 years, I guess I can wait another few months.

                ??? So the whole solar system exists within the sun?

                    If the sun had no surface, it would be without bound and engulf everything.

                    The sun does indeed have a surface, the photosphere. A paltry 5800K.

                      That would not be considered a surface. That, instead the outer boundary of the sun with sufficient denisity to be considered part of the sun. A surface would be a definite boundary that one crosses. The sun has no such boundary.

                        I see!

                        If I open the front door of our house then there is no surface to separate the inside from the outside so then our house would "engulf" everything!

                          that's where the difference between solid and non-solid surface comes in

                          while technically speaking you're probably right, k6-3, it's still easier to call it surface because it's silly to call it 'outer boundary that's still considered part of the sun' every time you refer to it.

                            I did my research K6-III, time for you to do your before you contradict me incorrectly.

                            I tend to trust the fellas over at JPL: http://sse.jpl.nasa.gov/features/planets/sun/sun.html

                            Perhaps you should revisit the definition of surface.

                            Also, sunspots are defined as "Any of the relatively cool dark spots appearing periodically in groups on the surface of the sun that are associated with strong magnetic fields."
                            by the American Heritage dictionary. In case you didn't see it coming, yes, sunspots appear on the photosphere.

                              I have discovered the secret new processor for the upcoming Matrox video card, and have risked life and limb to bring you this top secret document describing it! Now there will be no doubt as to the power of the new card!
