Hello Dave,

can you please send the link to your latest work on this?
So someone (we) can have a look and learn/maybe fix it.
Maybe Elie step in and offer fp64 for r600g if he has some time left.
My times on r600g come to an end...
RX 580, 8 GB, Nitro+ is coming on Friday/Saturday, Yeahhhh ;-)

Then I have to decide if I hold the Turks XT (6670) or to comp it.

Greetings around the world!

Dieter
