Memory allocation Nvidia vs AMD

I know there is a 128MB limit for a single block 开发者_开发问答of GPU memory on AMD GPU's. Is there a similar limit on Nvidia GPU's?


You can query this information at runtime using clGetDeviceInfo and CL_DEVICE_MAX_MEM_ALLOC_SIZE.

See clGetDeviceInfo Man Page for more information.


On GTX 560 clGetDeviceInfo returns 256MiB for CL_DEVICE_MAX_MEM_ALLOC_SIZE, however I can allocate slightly less than 1GiB. See this thread discussing the issue.

On AMD however this limit is enforced. You can raise it by changing GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE and GPU_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE environment variables (see this thread).
