a standard (standard for ORE) CPU on here has just 1 ALU.
a "dual ALU" CPU is actually referenced as a "SuperScalar" which means that the CPU just has more then one Functional Unit (an ALU is a type of FU). This kinda work hasn't really been pushe'd for in MC too much yet. As to be a super scalar u have to have at least a basic pipeline (and only a handful of people can make those that I know of, I want more ppl to try tho ). As well as you would need large enough programs, well enough made, to take advantage of the superscalar.
this doesn't mean you shouldn't go for it, by all means I hope you do and I hope you succeed
Just wanted to help clarify some terms and let you know that it hasn't been done before
Also, we need a picture or video in the app to accept, can u add one?
