Thats an impressive piece of hardware for $99. I dig those Zynqs. They have some shortcomings, but they’re nice devices overall. It’s always nice to see an FPGA related post here on FR :)!

We’ve all had heavy duty parallel processing power in our PC’s for quite a while... they’re called GPU’s. Video processing does not require tons of speed, just lots of throughput - which is the perfect problem for parallel processing to solve. Modern GPUs have application programming interfaces which can be harnessed for parallel processing needs and for certain types of work a gaming class GPU can crunch numbers much more quickly than a x64 processor.

Does this basically mean a virtually unlimited amount of RAM to run programs fast as lightning?

Very interesting for 3D graphics rendering and other engineering considerations.

Among the many benefits: a couple of orders of magnitude in increased processing ability for the same amount of energy, at greatly reduced costs in hardware.
