OpenCL - you will need graphics/clover which is not officially supported by AMD but may work. ROCm/HIP - won't work. ok thnks for that. I saw no option for boinc_client to use OpenCL when building the port, so I installed opencl first, then linux-c7 (was c6 before) then built boinc-client ensuring the option to take linux work was selected. The boinc project is World Community Grid. I'm not able to immediately test as it's a friend's computer. He says it "displays great" but I'm looking for a way to quantify that. Hence the question how to test the cards capabilities. thanks, -- J.Received on Mon Oct 08 2018 - 20:28:25 UTC
