Radeon RX 7000: AMD clarifies confusion about “problems” with shader prefetch

After rumors arose that AMD’s RDNA3 GPUs do not support shader prefetch, the company responded with a statement. Accordingly, the function is definitely activated on the RX-7000 graphics cards. On the other hand, the code segment that indicated a malfunction is said to relate to an experimental function intended for the future. Specifically, the method published by Kepler is intended to return the available size of the prefetch. If it is an RDNA3 GPU with revision 0 (chip numbers 1100 to 1103), the size returned is zero, which disables the feature. From this it was quickly concluded that the prefetch is deactivated on the entire generation and thus performance is wasted. According to AMD, however, this is not the case. The company quickly responded with a statement that shader prefetch works on the RDNA3 GPUs and thus on all RX 7000 graphics cards. The affected code function is said to be used only for an experimental feature that will only be used in future Radeon generations. According to AMD, this approach of testing future features on current hardware is standard in the industry.
