If the world moves on to ARM from x86, it will be interesting to see what happens in the GPU/Accelerated computing space. I'm guessing AMD/Intel will probably not support an ARM pairing anytime soon.
- wmf 6y agoSamsung is working on SoCs with ARM CPUs and AMD GPUs.
- cpgxiii 6y agoYou can already use AMD GPUs on some aarch64 machines, and anything with upstream Linux driver support is likely to work fine.
- chodeboy 6y agoJim Keller apparently not only worked on Ryzen but also on an arm CPU named K12 [1] until 2015. It is likely that AMD still has the blueprint for that CPU stashed away to focus on the x86 market but still have a plan b if arm becomes dominant.

- kd913 6y agoAMD processors already have an ARM trustzone core. I think the official policy is use whatever hardware is suitable for the purposes and sometimes embedded ARM is the correct choice. If they don't support ARM servers, they are done for in some cloud/supercomputer markets. Hence they will support it.
