On May 12th, NVIDIA Corporation announced its OpenCL™ 1.0 drivers for Windows XP and LINUX have been submitted to the Khronos OpenCL Working Group for certification immediately after the conformance tests were approved. These pre-release drivers are now available to all NVIDIA GPU Computing registered developers.
NVIDIA was the first to provide pre-release drivers to its OpenCL Early Access Program participants in April 2009. NVIDIA remains the only vendor today with software and hardware available for developers to program with OpenCL as well as other GPU Computing environments including DirectX Compute, C with CUDA extensions and other languages.
