arcticstoat writes "It's sometimes easy to forget that the PC graphics market isn't owned by ATI and Nvidia, but the company that first gave us 3D acceleration, S3, is very much still around. So much so, in fact, that it's now even developed its own GPGPU technology. S3 claims that its Chrome 400 chips can accelerate gaming physics, HD video transcoding/encoding and photo enhancing. The demonstrate the latter, S3 has also released a free download called S3FotoPro, which enhances colour clarity and reduces haze in photos. However, the company hasn't yet revealed whether it plans to support OpenCL in the future."
