Download Google Chrome 18 stable now. The search giant, keeping with the six-week release schedule, made available a new version of its very popular web browser software and this time it brings enhancements to the graphics performance.
Version 18 enables a stable GPU acceleration for Canvas 2D — HTML5 graphic elements –. Google is sure that this new feature will improve web browser gaming and app performance in a big way, while not putting a lot of load into the CPU.
