Hi everyone, I’m currently using a 3.0GHz Pentium to render scenes. This is incredibly slow. I own a Radeon HD 7790, which is the only card ever to use a Bonaire-based GPU. I’ve seen people get good performance out of Tahiti cards, but when I replicate their steps, it’s still not recognized. I can’t find evidence of anyone else trying to use Cycles with this architecture. If you know how I can get it to work, that would be splendid.
You could try OpenCL with the latest Beta driver and:
