Model – The marketing name for the processor, assigned by Nvidia. Launch – Date of release for the processor. Code name – The internal engineering codename for the processor (typically designated by an NVXY name and later GXY where X is the series number and Y is the schedule of the project for that generation).

Non-hardware-related vendors may also assist free graphics initiatives. Red Hat has two full-time employees (David Airlie and Jérôme Glisse) working on Radeon software, [102] and the Fedora Project sponsors a Fedora Graphics Test Week event before the launch of their new Linux distribution versions to test free graphics drivers.

During the 1980s and 1990s, a relatively large number of companies appeared selling primarily 2D graphics cards and later 3D.Most of those companies have subsequently disappeared, as the increasing complexity of GPUs substantially increased research and development costs.
Launch – Date of release for the GPU. Architecture – The microarchitecture used by the GPU. Fab – Fabrication process. Average feature size of components of the GPU. Transistors – Number of transistors on the die. Die size – Physical surface area of the die. Core config – The layout of the graphics pipeline, in terms of functional ...
ROCm is free, libre and open-source software (except the GPU firmware blobs [4]), and it is distributed under various licenses. ROCm initially stood for Radeon Open Compute platfor m ; however, due to Open Compute being a registered trademark, ROCm is no longer an acronym — it is simply AMD's open-source stack designed for GPU compute.
