Snow Leopard is bringing with it many notable speed improvements, memory management techniques, and space saving features that are worth more than the surprising though greatly welcomed $29 price tag. Perhaps one of the greatest features that Snow Leopard will bring is that of the CPU offloading cycles to the GPU to speed up tasks when things get hot and heavy. As long as you have an Intel equipped Mac and a graphics card from the following:
most of the benefits of Snow Leopard and GPU processing will be yours to have. However, if you’re a big h.264 supporter and were looking forward to enjoying h.264 GPU accelerated fun, I’m sorry to say that you’re going to be waiting for quite a long time. It seems that only Nvidia 9400M cards and greater will support h.264 acceleration. While this may be the end of the world to some, for others it will merely be a reason to upgrade. What’s your take?
