Actually, Cat 9.12 doesn’t inlcude a standalone OpenCL support: you must install the ATI Stream v2 beta4. Now you have a clean system, you have to install the latest Catalyst 9.12 hotfix that includes OpenCL support. In some cases, it’s not enough and a fresh install of Windows may be the solution (that’s what I did for Catalyst 9.12… 🙁

To be sure your system is clean, just run Guru3D’s driver sweeper to remove ForceWare leftovers. Yes, my friends, AMD provides OpenCL with CPU and GPU support. If, like me, you have both ATI and NVIDIA drivers on your system, the GPU code path of AMD’s OpenCL won’t work. Enabling OpenCL on AMD platformĪh here we are, with AMD it’s trickiest! The most important thing is that your system must be clean of NVIDIA display driver residues. After the driver installation, start GPU Caps Viewer 1.8.0 and you should see something like this:Īll GeForce 8 and higher are OpenCL-capable devices. The OpenCL.dll that comes with R195.38 is actually the Khronos OpenCL interface and real OpenCL implementation is hidden in some nvcuda files… Anyway installing R195.39 / R 195.62 is enough to have OpenCL on your system. R195.39 is the first driver that offer a public OpenCL support. On NVIDIA platform, OpenCL comes with the latest R195.39 or R195.62 WHQL.
