Get the numbers right in high-end HW

| Jun 24, 2015 at 16:10 | comment | added | SEJPM | thank you for the credit :) But you can't have 16 CPUs on one motherboard (at the moment) "only" 8. But as explained correctly each of them has up to 18 cores each running 2 threads, so in total the maximum of threads lies around $8*18*2=288$ (for a "cheap" 57k USD) recommended for now, $8*28*2=448$ for Skylake-EX plus FPGA speed-ups. | |

Incorporate SEJPM's kindly supplied update on what high-end enterprise servers do.

| Jun 24, 2015 at 12:58 | comment | added | SEJPM | please note: High End for server processors means Intel Xeons, which can have 18 cores (*2 for hyperthreading) on 8 sockets as of now (Haswell-EX-Gen), 24 cores on 8 sockets in the "near future" (Broadwell-EX) and 28 cores on 8 sockets in the "more far future" (Skylake-EX) and these will also feature FPGAs on the chips for heavy computations.
