AMD wants to beat Nvidia at its own game with open-source software
AMD is bringing ROCm 7 to Windows as it recommits to an open-source approach.
AMD thinks Nvidia has it wrong. The future of AI is built on open-source software, and it looks like we're reaching an inflection point. AMD revealed ROCm 7 at Advancing AI 2025, which is the latest version of AMD's open-source software stack that's built to compete with CUDA. ROCm 7 brings a ton of new features, but more important than all of them is Windows support. When ROCm 7 launches in August, AMD says it'll work on Windows through the ONNX-EP framework, and it'll roll out support for PyTorch in Q3. In addition, AMD is doubling down on Linux, adding in-box support for ROCm in Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, and RedHat.
