Is it worth switching to AMD for AI Video Generation? ROCm Inquiry
iridescentblob · reddit · 2026-09-02
A user with a 4060TI 8GB is planning a GPU upgrade for video generation (e.g., WAN 2.2), as current 2-second renders take over 30 minutes.
Options include the 5060TI 16GB or AMD's 9060xt/9070xt 16GB. The main question is whether AMD's ROCm progress on Linux makes it a viable choice for video gen via ComfyUI, or if NVIDIA's support remains the safer bet.
