GPU Utilization in C#

[tappatekie]

Hello everyone, just a quick question. For a website I am making, would you think it will be a good idea to utilize the GPU for a hardware accelerated web server + database server and would you think that using this would make it slower since I am doing it C#.
I have looked at http://www.tidepowerd.com/

This is a situation that REALLY depends on your usage patterns. As far as I know, most GPUs are optimized for SIMD: single instruction, multiple data. They're extremely good at doing the same thing to a lot of bits of data. So if you're doing a lot of uniform transformations, go for it; but if you're doing a lot of different operations, your CPU is actually probably going to be faster, or at the very least the amount of work you go into making your code run on the gpu is not going to be worth the (probably tiny) performance gain.
