alt Hacker NewsIs it really that short? This support matrix shows ROCm 7.2.1 supporting quite old generations of GPUs, going back at least five or six years. I consider longevity important, too, but if they're actively supporting stuff released in 2020 (CDNA), I can't fault them too much. With open drivers on Linux, where all the real AI work is happening, I feel like this is a better longevity story than nvidia...where you're dependent on nvidia for kernel drivers in addition to CUDA.

You missed the note at the top "GPUs listed in the following table support compute workloads (no display information or graphics)". It doesn't mean that all CDNA or RDNA2 cards are supported. That table is very is very misleading it's for enterprise compute cards only - AMD Instinct and AMD Radeon Pro series. For actual consumer GPUs list is much worse https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/radeon-ryzen/en/latest/in... , more or less 9000 and select 7000 series. Not even all of the 7000 series.
