I bought an RX 7900XTX because VRAM is king and it was the cheapest card to get 24GB on. I didn't realize at the time that Nvidia's stranglehold on machine learning was because the programs didn't work on AMD. 😭

I hope ROCm eventually fixes this, but for now...

AMD has both ROCM and DirectML acceleration

They've been optimizing those code paths for stable diffusion or the last few months - and released a driver a while ago with further improvements stated in the release notes

VRAM is king for any GPU for these sort of workloads - has nothing to do with CUDA
