Crankin' It Up

Having previously adopted the OpenCL standard to enable GPU acceleration among a broad number of graphics cards from NVIDIA, AMD and Intel, CyberLink has gone a step further with its new TrueVelocity 3 rendering engine. TrueVelocity 3 supports multi-GPGPU or multiple graphics processor acceleration, for significant gains in rendering speed. Of course, you will need the right hardware to take advantage of the TrueVelocity technology, but for those who do, it's a great time-saving feature.
