Has anyone used CUDA/OpenCL in their applications? I imagine for Monte Carlo type scenarios it provides an incredible speedup ("embarassingly parallel") but what about PDE methods?
 
A good thread. Thanks.

I wonder how things are going to improve now that Fermi is on the scene.
 
Has anyone here actually used a Fermi ?

But when they get it out, I think it will help the market mature, the next heavy lift is getting people to write good for it. This is not trivial.
 
Used GPU computing for Computational Fluid dynamics simulations a lot.
 
I imagine the academic community will be leading the way, particularly with CFD, as suggested by joyryde. I know that a lot of my previous codes would have benefitted immensely from a GPU setup, as they were easily parallelised.

I'll be saving up for my Fermi. :)
