Which video cards support these new instructions?

[FireBurn]

The new extensions seem to be more about how Vulkan is implemented rather than something that would be limited by the hardware. I think I saw someone post that they had patches for these extensions already but were waiting for the spec to be released- they instead just submitted some bug fixes that were required first. So hopefully that means Radv and Anv already support these.

Which video cards support these new instructions?

Probably all. They're VK_KHR_. They can't just run around and change hardware requirements before the API is even adopted. That's what alpha and early beta stages are for.
