GPUOpen is a new initiative started by Advanced Micro Devices’ Radeon Technologies Group (RTG) as a way for the company to continue to reach out to the needs to developers by giving them a better development environment. The idea behind GPUOpen is born out of the work that Advanced Micro Device’s did with Mantle, their own low-level API which eventually found itself reworked into the industry standard Vulkan API. Thanks to Mantle we also have other low-level APIs that allow developers to get more access to hardware and better performance and experience. GPU Open is the next step in the evolution of AMD’s mission to improve the PC game development environment while also making it more and more open.
