ATI Jumps on OpenCL Bandwagon by Releasing OpenCL Drivers
 

ATI, graphics business unit of Advanced Micro Devices, said in a statement that it is “actively” sampling preview releases of OpenCL-enabled drivers with strategic customers. The move allows developers of software to start playing with OpenCL before the company ships appropriate drivers to end-users.

“We are actively sampling preview releases of OpenCL CPU with a handful of strategic customers and ISVs, each with an assigned application engineer helping them. A public beta and production version of OpenCL is planned to be released as part of ATI Stream SDK v2.0 in the second half of this year,” the statement by ATI/AMD reads.

ATI releases its OpenCL-enabled drivers to select software developers about one and a half months after its arch-rival Nvidia Corp. started to ship its OpenCL-powered pre-beta drivers.
