Great news but what about the others like me having older Radeon 9000, 7500 and 9250 in AmigaOnes cpu ? these old cards are supporting shaders as well !

The shader capabilities in Radeon 7000-9250's are really really basic. That's why ATI never wrote a GLSL compiler for them. Of course, if someone wants to have a go at creating a Warp3D Nova driver anyway, then that's cool. Just know that it'll only ever be able to use really basic shaders.

Very cool indeed!! Nice work Hans!

I wonder why the DDR5-only limitation?

That's a limitation of the 2D RadeonHD driver. DDR3 cards have a poor track record, and so far I've been unable to figure out why.
