If you follow Gpu computing news at least there has been a OpenCL update every
month since May 2009 (expecting July 2009..):
(April 2009): nvidia private beta..
May 2009: Nvidia to GPU computing reg. dev (185 based)
june: Nvidia new update fixing issues for WinXP
Aug:AMD ships OpenCL CPU imp. Snow Leopard ships with OpenCL for amd nvidia gpus.
Sep:
(11)Nvidia to GPU computing reg (190 based)
(28)Nvidia first public developer driver and OpenCL SDK. (same as 11)
Oct: Nvidia OpenCL shipping in leaked beta 195 driver.
AMD shipping GPU OpenCL in beta4.
Nov: Nvidia Public driver and OpenCL SDK (195 cuda 3.0)
Dec: AMD ships 2.0 production
DirectX is a lot less:
March 2009 (Nvidia DirectCompute SDK initially compiled with these so it supported hardware drivers..)
August (actually released in september..)
well I was expecting a new SDK for December but thats over..
So I argue I don't expect new drivers until late Feb and surely for March..
as AMD has updated every two months and half approx (early august,mid oct,end dec) so new update is march.. also because christmas non labor days..
Nvidia non expect big things until Fermi and 200 drivers..
expect a lot in March also due to Fermi and GDC 2009:
Nvidia
Fermi launch drivers (200 drivers?)
CUDA 3.1 preview?
new OpenCL ext (3d image write,fp16)
OpenCL 1.1 preview?
Fermi:
OpenGL extensions for Fermi
D3D 11 DC5.0 for Fermi
3D Vision: windowed support, youtube jps in browser,support for D3D11 games..
OpenGL Fermi extensions
Optix 1.1 fermi optimized
Physx 3.0 GDC with APEX
Cg 3.0
VDPAU with H.264 MVC (3D Bluray)
AMD
New OpenCL SDK with image support, 3d image writes, byte addresable, fixed icd,
opengl interop
opengl 5xxx ext.
Microsoft
March sdk with doubles fixed
Apple
