Adobe Premiere Pro to Get More GPU Acceleration and Optimization

[Tartaros]

Some people are mad that $54000 Apple Mac Pro has AMD GPU not their "better" Nivdia gpu.

What are you talking about, AMD is supported. Also, Nvidia gpus are supported on Mac.

Nevertheless, any self-respected professional will use an nvidia GPU, so AMD support is not that important.

Can confirm on the research side. OpenCL support for Radeon GPU is non-existent from AMD/RTG.

Did you understand what i said??

Who uses OpenCL?? I thought everybody uses CUDA, not OpenCL.

How to use CUDA on an AMD Radeon card ?

What tends to happen is people who wants to use CUDA buy NVidia cards, instead of bothering to use OpenCL.

Well people buys Nvidia card. Do you know why Nvidia has that much market share?? It is because of CUDA. Even people who dont use CUDA buys Nvidia card because of CUDA.
OpenCL is a dead API.

Apparently, it's still slow compared to DaVinci Resolve.

Well I tried to use OpenCL a few years back on the old Fiji uArc. Some of my collegues also spent money on RTG's MI GPUs. ROCm and OpenCL was a huge mess.

ROCm is a mess because of nVidia locking CUDA down with some really draconian licensing. Want to make CUDA emulation, you better not have even looked at the SDK or NV will sue your ass, so AMD has to white room reverse engineer things.

In compute tasks like video, a Radeon VII chokes a Quadro RTX 5000 out on perf vs dollars.

There are replacements for OpenCL and they are gaining traction, they have feature sets with ease of use that challenge the walled garden of CUDA.

Let's hope so because I obviously won't fall into the trap of a closed ecosystem of a monopolist.
If AMD asks for industry-wide open support, then it's better for Nvidia to reconsider...

Because bad things happen to such companies - they should look at Intel for an example and fear the future.

Really? R7 looks more like a 2060 level card in video/photo based compute tasks.

In scientific computing, most GCN based cards are useless due to broken OpenCL support. Open standard means jackshit when you provide 0 effort in supporting the developers as well as the entire user community. At GPU compute what matters is the execution of tasks, the attention to details and the support to developers.

I do admit AMD/RTG GPU are VERY good at mining crypto-coins though.

GPU Compute render perf review with 20 GPUs

We will not peek at game performance with graphics cards for a change, instead, we'll be firing of three GPGPU render compute solutions to see how they react towards the twenty graphics cards we fire... Article Page 3 - Blender 2.82 OpenGL/CUDA/OptiX

Dude..

That's what you said and what everyone here understood. If you think someone who has a Mac for content creation, has that budget and does not know about what a Mac can do regarding compatibility, you are wrong. Mac users can be memefied sometimes, but come on.

Also, OpenCL? pffffffffff

Damn, so many fanboy and stupid comments on this thread.
People, calm down. For AMD to get support it needs to GET INVOLVED IN THE PROCESS. It needs to alocate engineers to make this work.
You all cry like woosies cause AMD didn't get into laptops, AMD doesn't have NUCs, AMD here AMD there. Nobody will do AMDs own work.
That is develop ecosystems, platforms, implement software stacks, optimize compilers, etc, etc. Nvidia is doing it, Intel is doing it.
Having a good relationship (that is hire actual people to work with your partners) is a crucial element. And AMD pumps out good products (except their GPUs which are just trash) but doesn't allocate enough resources for laptops, nucs, software all the things you are crying here, to become a reality.
Stop being so whiny and understand how things work in the first place.
Nevertheless, any self-respected professional will use an nvidia GPU, so AMD support is not that important.

You're the only one that's whining here & AMD's GPU's are not trash, they're driver optimization can be yes, but no, their GPU's are fine.

 

[ARF]

Why doesn't the software globally use the iGPUs as floating point calculations accelerators, as per the initial goal of AMD's Fusion?

Actual woosie comment who's mad at a certain brand. ↑

Any self respected professional will use whatever he has to use and not chose something because of the color of the sticker, otherwise the only thing he might be is a professional idiot. People in the real world don't think like that.

Suuure, believe what you want.
This is the definitive characteristics of fanboys. Whenever truth is told they get upset and start winning again. And reading comprehension is just 0.
