OpenCL on CPU

Post by 3DModelerMan »

If I program an application using OpenCL, will it run threads on a system that doesn't have a graphics card with OpenCL support? Can I use just the CPU threads on that system? without GPGPU?
That would be illogical captain...

In AMD implementation of OpenCL You can use both CPU (eg. Phenom) and GPU (eg. HD5k), but in a nVidia implementation You can use only GPU (eg. GF8 series).
