Gerd, Sven, Edmund and Daniel have been kind enough to be giving me advice on SIMD friendly move generation over on this thread
http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=43971
A good piece of advice from Daniel was that I should be:

...first picking up one of better gpus with the larger cache size. It is hard to fit everything on the L1.

I promised that I'd start a separate thread so ...... any thoughts on:
1) AMD vs Nvidia for compute devices. I've found this rather wonderful web-site on my travels http://www.clbenchmark.com/result.jsp . It seems like AMD's 7000 series have taken back the compute crown even though Nvidia's 600 series are winning all the frames-per-second gaming reviews.
2) It seems like many AMD cards report 32Kb of local memory whilst many Nvidia cards report 48Kb. Is this available to every processing element? e.g. The Nvidia GTX 550 Ti has 192 "CUDA cores", does that mean that every one of them has 48kb of local memory i.e. a total of 9Mb of fast, local memory split evenly across the device?
Many thanks in advance,
John |
