I really wish I could buy a Max and:
- Have the GPU/Metal work in linux.
- Get the high RAM config for less than a bajillion dollars.
I think AMD/Intel will have something similar soon, but its still really frustrating to see such cool hardware be so... Appley.
- viraptor 3y agoYou can already use GPU on Linux with M1 max and M2, so M2 max shouldn't be far away. (https://github.com/AsahiLinux/docs/wiki/Feature-Support https://github.com/AsahiLinux/docs/wiki/Feature-Support)
- brucethemoose2 3y agoAFAIK they can run OpenGL. Thats a far cry from full metal and vulkan support. My main interest would be running AI models (which are probably going to need metal or vulkan on a linux Apple GPU), and the secondary interest would be Proton games (though Vulkan).
- viraptor 3y agoYup, OpenGL now and Vulkan will happen at some point in the future. Although if someone gets interested, maybe they'll reverse engineer ANE and expose that...
