There's lots of demands for AMD hardware in datacenters and supercomputers.
- prettyStandard 4y agoI didn't say it wasn't true I was just trying to say it didn't make sense to me. If you're trying to build a giant supercomputer it seems like you would pick something where the software works. But maybe they are using ROCm. It seems like that only works for the higher end stuff. Maybe they're planning on running stuff that's already been built on OpenCL, and AMD is competing on the price for the publicity.
