Photoshop CS4 Will Use Video Cards to Render

DailyTech - Photoshop CS4 Will Use GPU Power


Even now, most people think that all discrete video cards have no other purpose than gaming. Quite a petty view, needless to say. With the advent of nVidia's CUDA platform and AMD's FireStream GPGPU initiative, your graphics cards will have a lot more to do than just playing games - think protein folding, video encoding, even password cracking! Now, with Adobe's recent announcement of Photoshop CS4, GPU acceleration meets photo editing. Adobe claims that zooming in/out, canvas rotation, and 3D manipulation will all be helped by your GeForce or Radeon hardware.
