Inno3D Lucid Virtu GPU Software for Sandy Bridge-based SystemsVirtu promises to marry the integrated graphics features of the Sandy Bridge Intel processor graphics to the performance of discrete solutions from Inno3D NVIDIA. The result is a system that can fully utilize BOTH GPUs and user that finally gets what they deserve. In the first week of January this year, Intel released the Sandy Bridge based Core i7, i5 and i3 desktop processors to pretty much universal fanfare with performance and features that far outmatched what the competition has been able create. The new processors were the first desktop offerings to integrate graphics on the same die as the primary CPU processing cores and the resulting "processor graphics" were one of the key selling points of the new chip to mainstream and budget PC builders. With Virtu software, next-generation PCs with 2nd Generation Intel Core processor platforms will dynamically balance the advanced power-efficient, built-in media features of Intel Core processor graphics with the high-end, DirectX 11 3D, anti-aliasing and performance features of discrete GPUs, while significantly reducing the power drain of traditional entertainment desktops. Ultimately, the consumer is assured optimal simultaneous performance in 3D gaming and video functions like transcoding and HD playback without the need to swap video cable connections between GPUs.
