    Strange limit in AMD OpenCL driver

    TIL that on a Tahiti board with 6 instead of the usual 3 GiByte of VRAM, the AMD OpenCL driver seems to think 3 GiByte should suffice for everyone. It's CL_DEVICE_GLOBAL_MEMORY is set to 3072 MiByte, leaving half of the memory effectively useless. Is there any known workaround, an environment...

    AMD: RDNA 3 Speculation, Rumours and Discussion

    So RDNA 2 has no chiplets. What about RDNA 3? If it's based on chiplets, will there be Infinity Cache? I've been theorising chiplets for a very long time. I don't want to be disappointed this time!
