Submission + - ATI Stream: Finally, CUDA Has Competition (tomshardware.com) 1
bodhi27 writes: After a train wreck of a debut last winter, ATI Stream is back for Round 2, trying like mad to make up lost ground against NVIDIA's CUDA. Good news — it doesn't suck! Actually, in a lot of cases, Stream toasts CUDA. But that's only half of the story, and AMD is a long way from out of the woods with Stream. This article goes deeper into the mechanics of the new Stream and WHY it shows the results it does than any other coverage on the Web. It's worth a read for anyone interested in GPU computing and why AMD has made the decisions it has with this important technology.
