At least going forward, with both AMD's AI accelerators and Consumer GPUs using the same RDNA based IP, there will be less reason for AMD to drop RDNA GPUs from the ROCm/HIP support matrix! And so with both MI series accelerators

LOL, no Mention of IMEC(Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre) in the EUV development process and the only reason that the US can restrict the ASML EUV equipment is the EUV Light source and mirror optics for that is partially US produced

Blender SYCL Back End question, is there any potential there to get Polaris and Vega iGPUs/dGPUs working for GPU accelerated Cycles rendering via SYCL? And so AMD's abandoned Polaris and Vega for ROCm/HIP support but what abo

It's nice to see Emulators getting GPU acceleration on older Graphics generations where there's plenty of useful parallel compute to be tapped into! How about Supporting Vega And Polaris GPUs via SYCL so Blender 3D's SYCL bac
