Opencl.dll is a type of DLL file associated with Windows 10 Operating System developed by Microsoft Corporation for the Windows Operating System. The latest known version of Opencl.dll is 1.2.11.0, which was produced for Windows. This DLL file carries a popularity rating of 1 stars and a security rating of 'UNKNOWN'. OpenCL rendering kernels. The combination of the limited Cycles split kernel implementation, driver bugs, and stalled OpenCL standard has made maintenance too difficult. We can only make the kinds of bigger changes we are working on now by starting from a clean slate.
First versions of OpenCL implementations are now available for NVIDIA and AMD platforms (platform… this is a term you will see often with OpenCL). Here is a small HowTo about enabling OpenCL on Both AMD and NVIDIA hardware under Windows.Enabling OpenCL on NVIDIA platform
On NVIDIA platform, OpenCL comes with the latest R195.39 or R195.62 WHQL. R195.39 is the first driver that offer a public OpenCL support. The OpenCL.dll that comes with R195.38 is actually the Khronos OpenCL interface and real OpenCL implementation is hidden in some nvcuda files… Anyway installing R195.39 / R 195.62 is enough to have OpenCL on your system. After the driver installation, start GPU Caps Viewer 1.8.0 and you should see something like this:
All GeForce 8 and higher are OpenCL-capable devices.
Enabling OpenCL on AMD platform
Ah here we are, with AMD it’s trickiest! The most important thing is that your system must be clean of NVIDIA display driver residues. If, like me, you have both ATI and NVIDIA drivers on your system, the GPU code path of AMD’s OpenCL won’t work. Only the CPU code path will be ok. Yes, my friends, AMD provides OpenCL with CPU and GPU support. Really cool. To be sure your system is clean, just run Guru3D’s driver sweeper to remove ForceWare leftovers.
In some cases, it’s not enough and a fresh install of Windows may be the solution (that’s what I did for Catalyst 9.12… 🙁
Now you have a clean system, you have to install the latest Catalyst 9.12 hotfix that includes OpenCL support. Actually, Cat 9.12 doesn’t inlcude a standalone OpenCL support: you must install the ATI Stream v2 beta4.
Once the Catalyst 9.12 is installed, you have to install the ATI Stream beta4 SDK. After that, you should have an OpenCL GPU + CPU support. Want to be sure? Start GPU Caps Viewer 1.8.0 and you should see something like this:
From my tests, on Windows Vista, OpenCL GPU is supported by Radeon HD 3000 (at least the HD 3000 is detected as an OpenCL device but I didn’t manage to run the demo because of a linking error), Radeon HD 4000 (I tested a HD 4850 with success) and HD 5000 series (HD 5770 and HD 5870).

Build, debug, analyze and run OpenCL applications by turning to this reliable development kit that provides you with several components
What's new in Intel SDK for OpenCL Applications 2020.3.494:
- No functional changes.
Intel SDK for OpenCL Applications is a development kit designed to help advanced computer users such as software developers or programmers build and run OpenCL applications on Intel platforms.
In order to do that, users must have two components, the SDK mentioned above and also Intel Graphics drivers along with OpenCL runtime. The development kit consists of tools that let users build OpenCL applications, but also debug or analyze them. It features integration into various development environments as well.
Intel SDK for OpenCL Applications offers users all the necessary components to setup and communicate with the OpenCL devices of their choice. A special situation is when users target an OpenCL CPU device, which requires a different CPU runtime.
The Code Builder component can be used as standalone but can be integrated as a plugin for Microsoft Visual Studio or Eclipse, depending on the user's needs. However, it should be noted that all its versions can be used to edit or build OpenCL code, debug kernels or collect various data regarding runtime.
The build-related features include automatic code completion, syntax highlighting and a framework for kernel development. Debugging tools include API debugging, memory viewer, image viewer and call tracing. Among the analysis features, users can find API call, kernel latency and occupancy analysis and memory command analysis.
