LucidLogix Unveils Hydra Distributed Processing Engine

[Martin987]

The Hydra engine sits between the chipset and multi-GPUs and acts like a dispatch processor within a graphics processing unit (GPU) to distribute tasks among the processors. The technology drives the GPUs, performing scalable rendering of a particular image or scene, and relies on “unique adaptive decomposition and acceleration algorithms to overcome bottlenecks”.

This sounds good. I think it will available as an add-in card and seated on motherboards.

Very cool stuff this, seems to be treating a set of GPUs as a mini cluster, bet its based on supercomputing node-heads.
