Microsoft Web Explorer 9 takes advantage of GPU
Who would have thought that something as humble as a Web browser will one day harness the capability of your computer’s committed graphics card? That is happening to Microsoft’s Net Explorer 9, where it will build full use of the potential of the GPU when it comes to page rendering, where developers are able to exploit that using CSS, DHTML and Javascript. There will be a new Javascript engine incorporated into Net Explorer 9 with greater
interoperability and standards support all round. Does that mean you will need to equip your machine with a couple of graphics processing units? No, a basic video card ought to do the trick.Permalink: Microsoft Web Explorer 9 takes advantage of GPU from Ubergizmo | RSS Sponsor: Win a Fellowes Microshred Paper Shredder!
