AMD GPUs are definitely competitive unless you made a business out of computing things in GPU. For most daily tasks like graphics (games) or even moderate number crunching (OpenCL), AMD GPUs are perfectly usable and high value.
- jammygit 8y agoHow big is the gap between opencl and cuda right now?
- zozbot123 8y agoThese days Vulkan can be used for compute as well, and it gives the user a far more refined interface than OpenCL. There's very little reason to limit oneself to the latter.
- gnulinux 8y agoAny Vulkan library you can suggest? Last time I checked Vulkan, it required enormous amount of boilerplate just to connect GPU, compile, send data and run code. So, I ended up using OpenCL for years. Unless there are good high level libraries around I would still stick to OpenCL.
