Might be slightly off-topic, what’s the latest state-of-play for AMD/OpenCL? I hear in various places that AMD is fantastic for compute, but everyone seems to be using CUDA.

I’ve got a very expensive Bitcoin mining rig paperweight at the moment with two Vega 64s (along with another Vega 64 in my main rig) — it’d be great to re-purpose them for something potentially useful.

AMD is great when it comes to raw compute power for the money.

However, AMD has a history of shipping poor OpenCL drivers, so everyone just went with what actually worked - NVIDIA.

I don't know too much about it myself, but you could checkout https://rocm.github.io/dl.html
