NVIDIA is pitching GRID as a hardware offering tuned to the needs of graphically-demanding desktop virtualisation (VDI) workloads.

ready for use in blade servers from a range of vendors. NVIDIA worked with HP in the past for this trick, but has now brought Cisco, Dell and Lenovo into the fold.

Naturally, Citrix and VMware are also all over this release, so that Horizon, vSphere, XenApp, XenDesktop and XenServer all play nice.

Another addition is support for Linux desktops. That gesture, coming as it does on top of Citrix and VMware each announcing their support for penguin-powered virtual PCs, means this really does look to be the year of Linux on the (virtual) desktop.

This will bring specialised acceleration of tasks through server . Itmay provide acceleration to fluid dynamiccs, Artificial Neural Network and maybe grid gaming ..
