[Asteroids@home] New OpenCL application for AMD GPUs

Post by BOINC_News »

Hi everyone,
We are proud to announce our new OpenCL
applications for AMD GPUs!
Development process took some time but we finally managed to build it.
There are still many rough edges to be polished but thanks to you guys and to your feedback we'll continue to improve the code.

Linux application requires 64 bit OS with GLIBC v2.31 or higher and will run on most AMD Radeon GPU cards and some AMD Integrated Graphics with support of OpenCL 1.1 or higher.

Windows application requres 64bit Windows 10 or 11 and will run on most AMD Radeon cards and some AMD Integrated Graphics with support of OpenCL 1.2 or higher.

Happy crunching and thank you for your support!

Asteroids@home team

Meanwhile, petri33 of GPU Users Group has been looking into improving the (Nvidia?) GPU app, which is less efficient as the CPU app. Last news from end of August was that he's still working on it.
