Anyway, the Navi 2 series is awesome, and I am so looking forward to getting my hands on one of these! 🙂 Edited Octoby Jaidy Besides Apple too likes to keep things proprietary (just look at the lightening connector). If someone writes similar wrappers for AMD GPUs using openCL (I am not sure about Vulkan if that is another API?), AMD has had higher theoretical TFLOPs till last generation!Īnd Apple and Nvidia need to grow up.
They can be parallelized in openCL too, just that the CUDA wrappers are way too sweet. I need to perform computations with huge matrices. student in computer science, and I do numerical linear algebra, and its applications in machine learning. Though OpenCL can do much of what CUDA does, in the sense of freeing us from the worries of allocating and de-allocating memory manually, and also moving data between VRAM and system RAM. You are correct to the point that CUDA is closed source, and leverages nVidia's specific hardware. Besides, with the 6000-series AMD GPU's around the corner, there is little reason to prefer NVIDIA over its AMD counterpart. AMD uses Stream Processors and Compute Units, which serve a similar function but are ran on OpenGL rather than CUDA. AMD GPU's simply can't produce CUDA results, because they lack the specific cores in their architecture it's NVIDIA-only as far as I know.

NVIDIA writes all their stuff as closed-source as possible, so reverse-engineering an up-to-date driver for macOS, especially with full-feature support like CUDA, seems highly unlikely. Still, the VII's are great This really is the drag between Apple and NVIDIA. I got a feeling macOS support is going to be A-OK, so let's hope that holds There's indeed a good chance of Radeon VII's coming available, but the people who have them would sell them to upgrade, and seeing their price point and thermal limitations, I think most new userse would opt for a 6800 (XT) as well. When all is ready, I'll jump on the B550 (Probably VISION D), 5900X, and 6800XT bandwagon. I'll stick to the account that actually has posts then 😄 Sorry for going offtopic. God bless your ok and welcome fabiosunHah, ow, woops! I remember something going wrong there a while back. Both my sisters and brother in laws had it and recovered. Very stable machine!)įeel better great to have you back. (Actually, it's been on for past 2 weeks as I was editing a video-documentary on it when I got sick and was unable to easily turn it off. Hopefully this week I'll get to use the TRX40 again. (The idea of herd immunity is to either naturally develop antibodies from COVID directly, or, develop antibodies by receiving a vaccine.) This means I now have natural immunity with no need for a vaccine. I left hospital today now back at home and reading this thread on my laptop with supplemental oxygen (and lots of steroids and blood thinners).īTW, I sero-converted, meaning I now have antibodies to COVID. A 3-day hospital admission tuned me up and excluded some really serious stuff that I fortunately did not have (DVT/PE). I self-treated at home and did well until this past weekend when the "cytokine storm" hit me (I was too conservative with steroid use).
