Will OpenCL be able to manage using multiple graphics cards in games and other graphic dependent programs? like SLI but software based?

What is anything else it can do :confused:

Kind Regards
 
No. In fact it's not really for graphics at all: it's a way of running general purpose calculations on the graphics chips instead of the CPU.
 
Ah OK, thanks.

So having multiple GPUs can speed up application performance significantly?

So a GTX 285, and 3x GT 120's can be used? if the application is coded to use them?

Kind Regards
