digitallysane Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 http://www.nvidia.com/object/mental_images.html My first thought was that at this very moment the Cell project from Sony processor is losing one of the supporters, so SESI remains kind of alone in developing for it...

Matt_K Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 This could be really good - maybe we'll get some serious optimisations for Mental Ray on nVidia cards - perhaps even a Gelato'd version of Mental Ray? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there will be some of this - but I'm sure they must've bought it for some other intellectual property they had - and not for mental ray itself, surely?
