S3's new embedded GPU is OpenCL-capable

@ 2009/10/26
While it doesn't make headlines quite as often as AMD and Nvidia, S3 Graphics is definitely riding the OpenCL bandwagon—it's just targeting somewhat different markets. The California-based Via subsidiary has announced the Chrome 5400E, an embedded graphics processor that's compatible with both OpenCL 1.0 and DirectX 10.1.

According to the official product page, this 65-nm GPU resides on a diminutive 23 x 23 mm ball-grid-array package, can accommodate up to 512MB of DDR2 or GDDR3 memory, hooks up to the rest of the system via PCI Express 2.0, and supports dual-link DVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort outputs.
