The GT300/Fermi Thread - Part 2!

[damha]

ATi has a huge potential for GPGPU usage too, but they needs to provide a "working" API for programmers to access the GPU in a common and easy way. It should support generic codings like C/C++ too, and that's where CUDA helps Fermi to get ahead of ATi.

My recommendation to ATI would be to adopt/adapt the CUDA api from nvidia and get on with it. Let's be honest, nvidia has the clout to raise a stink big enough for everyone to notice. Their connections run deep.

Unless ATI is planning an API release secretly. I really hope they aren't, waste of resources.

@triniboy: I'll check it out. This gives me something to research
