We discuss the possible use of GPUs (Graphics Processing Unit) in the all-digital trigger and data acquisition (TDAQ) chain of the NA62 experiment at CERN. The exponentially growing interest in using GPUs for general purpose applications is based on the impressive performances achieved (peak performance already exceeding the Teraflop/s), on the high bandwidth to memory (hundreds of GB/s) and on the relatively easy high level programming frameworks available. \ua9 2010 IEEE
