+> [!NOTE]
+> - OpenCL does not have the same level of support as CUDA or Metal.
+> - Turning on CLBlast may degrade OpenCL performance if your device isn't already tuned. See [tuning.md](https://github.com/CNugteren/CLBlast/blob/162783a414969464ce3aa5adf5c2554afa5ee93e/doc/tuning.md#already-tuned-for-devices) for a list of devices that are already tuned and what to do if yours is missing.
