Cuda + ROCm simultaneously with -DGGML_BACKEND_DL=ON !
I invested quite a bit of time and it wasn't easy but finally I can run models like Minimax 2.7 Q4 using Cuda+ROCm at the same time bypassing Vulkan.
load_tensors: offloaded 63/63 layers to GPU
load_tensors: CUDA0 model buffer size = 83650.42 MiB
load_tensors: CUDA_Host model buffer size = 622.76 MiB
load_tensors: ROCm0 model buffer size = 40314.35 MiB
the main advantage is the prefill.
On windows :
rmdir /s /q build
cmake -B build -G Ninja ^
-DCMAKE_C_COMPILER="C:/Program Files/AMD/ROC

The "just wait 6 months" argument from 2025 survived exactly one iteration
Throughout 2025 the standard response to any complaint about an LLM was some version of "just wait 3-6 months, the next generation will handle this effortlessly." The argument was everywhere. Every limitation was temporary, every missing capability was a few iterations away, every autonomous agent demo was a preview of imminent reality.
It's April 2026 now and worth checking how that held up.
On r/ClaudeAI this week there's a long thread about Opus 4.7 where multiple users argue it's a regress

Mistral Medium 3.5 on AMD Strix Halo: Painfully Slow (Plan for Overnight Runs)
Someone actually tested Mistral Medium 3.5 on AMD's new Strix Halo chip, and the results are... not great. For a 48k-token prompt with 4k thinking tokens, it took about 2 hours just to get an answer about code architecture. Yeah, you read that right—two hours. The takeaway: if you want to run this locally on Strix Halo, queue it up before bed. The technical setup involved heavy optimization (Q5_K_XL quantization, GPU acceleration with -ngl 999, cache reuse), but even with all that tuning, it's still a crawl. Not exactly the "instant local AI" dream, but hey, at least it works.
