Offloading proccessing to GFX card? - Goof245 - 06-12-2009
Just wondering if it would be possible to execute the graphics instructions on the actual graphics card (maybe with CUDA?), leaving the CPU free to only emulate the CPU - specific code. Is this feasible or even possible, or am I just talking nonsense?

Think the consensus is that they are already offloading as much as possible to the gpu.

Yep , I dont think the shaders and stuff are processed by the CPU ^^

Implementing CUDA would make Dolphin run really slow...

We've already moved pretty much everything that can be moved to the gfx card.

Fair enough, thx for the quick replies
