NVIDIA said it could focus its PhysX for it to be operated by OpenCL API, opening its technology to ATI and Apple.

That is what our colleagues relate X-bit Labs, which give a little more weight to an interview a month ago by an officer of NVIDIA. We believe this decision is motivated by the fact that Apple has invested heavily in the OpenCL and the Chameleon's ability to remain a partner of the apple, rather than a desire to see its use ATI PhysX This would be possible with this kind of carry.

The advantage of such a measure is that it would encourage developers who do not wish to use the PhysX because of its reliance on green cards, since it requires CUDA. The drawback is that it would further limit the relevance of a more language belonging to NVIDIA and on which the firm has a lot to sell cards to companies and research centers interested in doing GPGPU.
