Default AMD adds to Open Physics
So, is this announcement important? Is it enough of a push for Open Physics? The languaging is all very sedate, unlike nVidia's POW-WOW press releases.

Yeah, but AMD's don't tend to be forgotten by the company 17ms after the press release goes out.

Well, it all depends on the adoption of the "open" stuff, that's the critical thing for any open stuff, like open standards, open-source software and things like that.

AFAIK there is still no OpenCL public support in ATi's drivers ?

GPU Caps Viewer always shows OpenCL as not being there for the 5xxx series....

I think its available in the OpenCL SDK, but that isn't public.....

I'm at least expecting some little techdemo's showing off what it can do, even if its just a little bit of cloth blowing in the wind....
