Oh really? As an outsider, that’s super interesting to know. Why can’t system RAM be used in Linux/Windows, or why is it able to be on macOS?

- rrss 7y agoYou can do that with OpenCL or CUDA on any platform, it's just ridiculously slow because of the much lower bandwidth so nobody does it. GPUs can access their memory (GDDR or HBM) at 300-800 GB/s, but system memory at only 16 GB/s.
