AMD RDNA3 GPUs now officially support Vulkan 1.3, and the upcoming RX 7000 series graphics cards will have the same support as the NVIDIA RTX 40 series.
After Vulkan 1.3 was released in January this year, it has received extensive responses from NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel. Within a week after the release, NVIDIA’s Ampere to Maxwell, Intel’s UHD, Iris Xe iGPU, Xe-HPG (Ruixuan independent display) and AMD’s RDNA1 and RDNA2 architectures support it.
According to the latest information on the Khronos website, AMD’s latest RDNA3 GPU architecture also supports Vulkan 1.3, the specific version is 1.3.3.1, and the system is Ubuntu and Windows 10.
Vulkan is a cross-platform graphics API, and Vulkan 1.3 is designed to be accelerated on OpenGL ES 3.1-like hardware so that the core API can be supported in a wide range of devices and markets. The core improvements include:
Dynamic rendering
dynamic state
Optimizing the management of shader pipeline compilation
Nsight tool support
AMD has now announced that it will hold the RX 7000 series graphics card launch event on November 3 at 4 pm ET.
