All machines use a single GPU for both compute and display. The benchmarks here were run in ISOLDE 1.0b4.dev2 on the systems listed below. While ISOLDE is designed for optimum performance on machines with a moderate-to-high-end Nvidia GPU, it will run with varying degrees of usability on almost any system with an OpenCL 1.2 capable GPU. On 2018 and newer MacBook Pro models this should yield a ~4-5 fold improvement in performance. If you wish, you can force it to use your AMD GPU using the command "isolde set gpuDeviceIndex 2" (or by setting the environment variable ISOLDE_DEVICE_INDEX=2 prior to starting ChimeraX). Further, deficiencies in the OpenCL driver's reporting of GPU characteristics causes OpenMM to typically automatically choose the smaller onboard Intel GPU for simulations (see the MacBook Air benchmarks below for indicative performance).

It is not entirely clear why, but preliminary results suggest this is due to deficiencies in the AMD OpenCL driver rather than the cards themselves: for the Radeon Pro 560X found in the 2018 model 15" MacBook Pro, the GeekBench 5 Particle Physics benchmark for OpenCL runs about 6 times slower than the same benchmark using Apple's Metal GPU compute API. Performance of molecular dynamics simulations on AMD GPUs such as those used in, for example, the larger MacBook Pro models, is unfortunately quite underwhelming.
