The use of GPUs for computing offers efficiencies and performance for certain classes of problems that would be prohibitively expensive for more traditional hardware. Problems that fit Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) processing models can gain significant advantages at the cost of difficult learning curves using specialized APIs. OpenCL, CUDA from NVidia and DirectCompute from Microsoft offer developers access to General-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU).
