AMD Announces Stream Computing Will Be Mainstream


amd_stream_2 AMD Announces Stream Computing Will Be Mainstream

AMD has been talking about CPU and GPU ‘fusion’ for many months now as they believe using both a processor and a graphics card is the way of the future. Today that reality has come one step closer with the announcement of a new technology brand called ATI Stream. It has been known for a couple years now that graphics cards and computer processors are better at handling different types of work loads and now software applications are able to work with both types of processors.  In an ideal world the computer processor would handle the serial and task parallel workloads, while the graphics card would handle the data parallel workloads and the traditional graphics workloads.
