GPU Utilization in Adobe Photoshop CS4

From Geekywood

Adobe, the worlds leading graphics design software manufacturer, have today anounced teh specs of th eeagerly awaited Photoshop CS4.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 is a ground breaking on several levels, first and foremost its graphic card utilization, a first outside the Apple Mac, and defiantely something that should be worrying the ol’ iPod creators.

The graphic card utilization gives Photoshop CS4 a whole new level of graphic manipulation, veiwing and modification power, greatly reducing lag. Mix this is with CS4’s 64bit compatability and its new Pixel Bending technology (Reduces rendering time on special effects) and suddenly CS4 is not only a more diverse, but also a much, much quicker product.

Along with the new speediness you also have Flash compatability now, allowing greater flexibility when creating flash documents and a new host of tools within photoshop!

My allover favorite feature though is content aware scaling, this can stretch and distort an image while retaining key areas. Say for interest stretching an image of a couple walking on the beach, you can stretch the image to the length you want while retainingt he size of the settnig sun and avoiding the couple becoming grotesquely fat!

All in all I love the new Adobe Photoshop CS4 and look forward to buying it on release!
