Well sort of, but it's still limited as to what tasks it can perform. But the scuttlebutt is that Nvidia is going to join the convergence zone. Where GPU's are becoming more CPU like and CPU are becoming more GPU like. More like the Cell BE!<br><br>"In fact, according to Folding@home's Vijay Pande, the project's GPU code was originally developed for NVIDIA GPUs" He also says they are working on a program right now to bring them online again.<br><br>What if Nvidia was to pair up with Intel? A sort of AMD/ATI deal. Make a multicore chip with both GPU and CPU cores on it! Anybody think that's feasible? ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[PS3-FOLDING@HOME]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 18th 2007 12:50AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
