Specs for RPCS3 in the future?

64-bit CPU with the AVX-512 extensions, and I guess it should have at least 8 cores (well, maybe this value is too low). About it's speed, I don't know, it seems Intel and AMD guys are stuck with CPUs under 4 GHz, which could be a problem.

We discussed an idea some time ago to reduce the CPU load (in the future of course) by using the GPU to perform float computations done by the SPUs, that would be extremly difficult to implement but I think could be done. The point is that the GPU is already busy drawing shit on the screen, which leads us to possible solution:
A) Threw the whole idea to trash and hope for faster CPUs.
B) Suffer incredibly amount of pain implementing this and requiring 2 *fast* GPUs running in parallel.
imagine a CPU that's 3 times as fast as today's fastest CPU, and it costs like 10k dollars when it launches in 10 yrs and could reach theoretical clock speeds of up to 155 Ghz, don't say i'm an idiot, i'm just hopeful the industry sheds some light on these new materials and their insane potential...
