HiP (unfortunately) has very limited support on AMD cards, unlike CUDA which runs on ALL NVidia hardware.

- snvzz 4y agoThat sucks, but the situation is improving. RDNA2 support was added early this year. Now that AMD isn't constrained by financial dire straits anymore, they seem to be pushing the HiP ecosystem very hard, adding HiP support into relevant software and frameworks. They were focused on CDNA cards first (aimed at datacenter/computer), but expanding it to cover RDNA2 (the gaming cards) is a key step forward; that's what potential developers already have for gaming, and thus important for HiP adoption. Otherwise, the widely deployed Vega have worked with HiP for a long time. I agree the RDNA1 hiccup was ugly and hurt adoption.
