AMD Delivers Peak Performance for Key Features and Creative Workflows in Latest Photoshop CC Release

Deve­lo­p­ment Through Open Stan­dards Taps High Per­for­mance AMD A‑Series APU, Rade­on™ and Fire­Pro™ Gra­phics Pro­ces­sing to Get the Most of Smart Shar­pen, 3D Prin­ting, and Other New Features

SUNNYVALE, CA — 01/30/14 – AMD (NYSE: AMD) today announ­ced that it has deli­ver­ed signi­fi­cant opti­miza­ti­ons in the gra­phics pro­ces­sing pipe­line to increase per­for­mance for powerful crea­ti­ve fea­tures and work­flows in the newest ver­si­on of Ado­be® Pho­to­shop® CC. Use of both Open­CL™ and OpenGL stan­dards enables Ado­be Pho­to­shop CC to direct­ly tap the com­pu­te and gra­phics pro­ces­sing capa­bi­li­ties of AMD Fire­Pro™ Pro­fes­sio­nal Gra­phics, AMD Rade­on™ Gra­phics, and AMD A‑Series APUs to unlock new levels of per­for­mance in the Smart Shar­pen fil­ter, and pro­vi­de high­ly respon­si­ve, visual­ly accu­ra­te expe­ri­en­ces for the new 3D prin­ting work­flows, and trans­for­ma­ti­ons such as Per­spec­ti­ve Warp.

“Com­pu­te per­for­mance is essen­ti­al to effec­ti­ve crea­ti­ve work­flows,” said Ste­ve Belt, cor­po­ra­te vice pre­si­dent, Stra­te­gic Alli­ances & Plat­form Ena­blem­ent, AMD. “An effi­ci­ent, spee­dy pro­cess is often the dif­fe­rence bet­ween suc­cessful­ly cap­tu­ring inspi­ra­ti­on and see­ing flas­hes of bril­li­ance ebb away. That is the real essence of what the AMD-Ado­be col­la­bo­ra­ti­on achie­ves. Tog­e­ther we con­ti­nu­al­ly find ways to suc­cessful­ly tap open stan­dards in order to deli­ver the hig­hest levels of per­for­mance for the most sophisti­ca­ted new tools like tho­se unvei­led today in Pho­to­shop CC.”

This new ver­si­on of Pho­to­shop CC, a key offe­ring of Ado­be Crea­ti­ve Cloud™, builds on the suc­cess of its pre­de­ces­sor, which lever­a­ged Open­CL ™ to power the Blur Gal­lery. The new updated ver­si­on of the Smart Shar­pen fea­ture lever­a­ges the power of Open­CL par­al­lel pro­ces­sing to take direct advan­ta­ge of AMD GPUs and APUs to acce­le­ra­te the enti­re Smart Shar­pen pipe­line — inclu­ding the broad palet­te of user-con­trol­led opti­ons for achie­ving per­fect results such as Amount, Radi­us, Redu­ce Noi­se, and algo­rithm choice. AMD’s latest gra­phics tech­no­lo­gy can increase appli­ca­ti­on per­for­mance up to 11 times the per­for­mance of non-Open­CL imple­men­ta­ti­ons1 and enables a light­ning-fast editing expe­ri­ence, even with lar­ge images.

The latest ver­si­on of Pho­to­shop CC also brings new OpenGL pipe­line sup­port in AMD APUs and GPUs to enhan­ce the respon­si­ve­ness and dis­play qua­li­ty for new, high-value fea­tures including:

  • Per­spec­ti­ve Warp — OpenGL per­for­mance pro­vi­des vir­tual­ly instant feed­back for this new fea­ture that enables users to sel­ec­tively adjust the per­spec­ti­ve of por­ti­ons of an image in rela­ti­on to other ele­ments that remain untouched.
  • 3D Prin­ting — OpenGL per­for­mance enhan­ces the expe­ri­ence of working with the powerful new 3D prin­ting capa­bi­li­ties in Pho­to­shop CC by pro­vi­ding rapid visu­al feed­back as 3D models are enhan­ced as well as accu­ra­te, WYSIWYG pre­views and fast mesh repair and 3D print preparation.

“We rely on Open­CL and OpenGL tech­no­lo­gies to pro­vi­de our cus­to­mers supe­ri­or per­for­mance and to take full advan­ta­ge of all the power their hard­ware pro­vi­des,” said Pam Clark, direc­tor of pro­duct manage­ment at Ado­be. “Working with AMD, we can levera­ge open stan­dards to deli­ver the fas­test and best expe­ri­ence for our Pho­to­shop customers.”

The­se new Pho­to­shop fea­tures acce­le­ra­ted by AMD are just the latest deve­lo­p­ments of a long-stan­ding col­la­bo­ra­ti­on that has brought dozens of hard­ware acce­le­ra­ted fea­tures to Pho­to­shop inclu­ding the Blur Gal­lery of effects, Pup­pet Warp, Liqui­fy and many more.
