that’s workload dependant, and also subject to support, no? Doesn’t GPGPU basically mean CUDA currently, and therefore beholden to Nvidia support for your hardware/software platform?
- dragontamer 5y agoAMD GPUs are supported over their open-source ROCm builds. HIP (CUDA-clone) works with Vega and CDNA. It seems like RDNA (5xxx and 6xxx cards) are less supported, but reports are that OpenCL kinda-sorta works (RDNA cards have a very different architecture than Vega / CDNA)
- UncleEntity 5y agoNah, I was playing around with an AMD integrated gpu a while ago using openCL (I believe).
- Const-me 5y ago> Doesn’t GPGPU basically mean CUDA currently Depends. If the programmers take the path of least resistance, sure it gonna be CUDA. Personally, I made quite a few things on top of DirectCompute i.e. vendor agnostic.
