Continuing its rendezvous with LucidLogix, MSI has announced that the company's Virtu GPU virtualisation technology will appear in its upcoming Intel Z68 chipset powered mainboards.
The talking point is the ability to switch between integrated Intel HD 2000/HD 3000 graphics capabilities, and discrete solutions, as the task at hand dictates. For lighter workloads, the use of integrated graphics will lower power consumption, yet when more oomph is required - during gaming for example - the system will dynamically switch to discrete graphics.
MSI adds that it will offer a complete line-up of Intel Z68 powered mainboards adorned with Virtu technology - plus a host of its own innovations - such as Military Class II components, and OC Genie II functionality.
Intel's Z68 chipset is apparently on track for launch in early May.
