A solo developer has wired the ZLUDA project to AMD's HIP libraries for Windows, letting CUDA-exclusive workloads run on a Radeon RX 9060 XT without virtualization or dual-booting.
A solo developer has wired the ZLUDA project to AMD's HIP libraries for Windows, demonstrating that multiple CUDA libraries can run on AMD's Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics card under Windows. The result is that CUDA-exclusive workloads — programs that previously demanded NVIDIA hardware — can now execute on AMD graphics hardware in Windows without virtualization or dual-booting, the two approaches that were previously needed to run such software on non-NVIDIA GPUs.
In this configuration, ZLUDA has been connected to AMD's HIP libraries on the Windows side, and the developer showed several CUDA libraries running on the RX 9060 XT in Windows. Notably, the demonstration hardware is a gaming-class Radeon card rather than a dedicated compute product, meaning the setup was shown working on consumer silicon of the kind found in desktop PCs.
The framing matters because the source report characterizes the work as a small but significant bridge over NVIDIA's CUDA moat. CUDA-exclusive workloads — software written to run only on NVIDIA's platform — represent exactly the dependency that has kept such tools anchored to NVIDIA GPUs. Demonstrating them on a Radeon card in Windows, without any virtualization layer or dual-boot arrangement, speaks directly to that constraint.
The scope nonetheless remains modest. This is a solo-developer effort, demonstrated on a single gaming-class card, and the report itself describes the bridge as small. Even so, the demonstration establishes that CUDA-exclusive workloads can run on AMD hardware in Windows with neither virtualization nor dual-booting — a concrete proof point that AMD's Radeon platform can host CUDA-dependent software. For buyers and builders tracking GPU ecosystem lock-in, it is a development worth watching.
