If only the AMD community was as nice as the Nvidia community here...
Same with the developers. Not saying that the amd developers are bad. But it's just not like Nvidia..
But times can change, i can only hope so
yeah well, as far as the devs are concerned... I think you have no clue about what you are talking...
Having written algo for both nvidia and amd, the only difference between the two is that for nvidia there is someone which doesn't do any work and ask people to send him the donation instead to the real developer...
and with amd you get message from Wolf0 telling you, that you could have done it better (as well as a few clue to where to look...)
Considering "communities", only 3 words: Grow up people !!!
It seems that you are your good old grumpy self again Djm.
Why always the negativity?
It seems that you're not so happy with AMD giving Nvidia a big kick in the but. Isn't that what this is all about?
Who said anything about donations? He was talking about the "community", i believe that that means, the people involved. Not only the developers, the miners as well.
And yes. The opencl compiler is crap, that's a well known fact. Plus so many other reasons. So developers tend to lean towards nvidia. Which is normal.
Wolf0 is a different story, again i have no clue what his part is in this conversation.
Well, i hope i have lots of growing up to do.
Let us leave it like this and let us not take over this thread with bullshit.
There is nothing negative in my message, I am just a bit tired of people moaning each time amd or nvidia become the fastest...
There is a lot less negativity in what I wrote than in the message I was responding, and clearly you didn't understand at all what I was saying, so let me rephrase it for you
:
Regarding which one is the fastest: I couldn't care less, I program for both...
Regarding nvidia/amd communities: I reiterate, there is no such thing as an AMD or an NVIDIA communities there are miners period.
hence: grow the fuck up
(seriously nvidia is the fastest, people buy nvidia; amd is the fastest people buy amd... that's all there is to these so called communities... )
Regarding the fact that devs tend to lean toward nvidia... this is just not true (even if I prefer cuda...), there are far more people in here developing for opencl than there is for cuda...
