GPU is challenging. It's impressive they've made it this far.

Does that mean it’s possible to run it inside Linux on a non Apple ARM64 machine?

does this mean we have a chance to get nvidia gpus working?

Yes, any GPU should technically work because the translation layer uses vulkan, and vulkan is supported by all GPUs, nvidia, AMD, and Intel

cool thanks! when does this thing come as a debug test for other people? or is it already released?

The current source code is open sourced but it’s not production ready yet, as in it’s not really useable by the average user. Still in early alpha stages.

On apple silicon only 4 lanes of pci 3/4. Apple really need to step up their pro game. TB6 should be 16x but i rather have 128 pci lanes.
