Here's something I can't find the right keywords for googling: A PC with a six-core processor would be called Hexacore. With an eight-core processor it would be called Octacore. What would it be called with 32 cores? I found what the basic multiples of 10 are: hecto, kilo, mega and so forth but I don't know how to put them together to make 32. Can anyone help with this?
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Brilliant! Thank you. I might have to come up with a different naming scheme for my PC's however, because that one might be a little long for a network name. :)

Yeah I'm building it around the AMD 2nd Gen RYZEN Threadripper 2990WX 32-Core, 64-Thread, 4.2 GHz Max Boost (3.0 GHz Base), Socket sTR4 250W YD299XAZAFWOF Desktop Processor - Newegg.com[^] It's the greatest number of cores available in a desktop CPU!

Holy crap! :omg: $1800 and "Cooling device not included". What do you cool it with, a domestic freezer?

250W just for the processor is some serious heat to get rid off - my first house was heated by a 1KW bar fire ... mind you, in the depths of winter we moved into the bedroom!

Yes I agree, but it's only 250W when it's running at max effort. Most of the time it will probably be much less.

'32 cores' We dont have to use poncy Latin all the time you know. Good old Saxon is perfectly OK.
