There seems that luxrender team finaly decided to develop an openCL version, lux was the first external rendering engine that produced
results as good as cycle now. I'll give it a try this week. But the 2.6 GUI kinda makes me in a state that I look the window then I clic the little red cross on the top xD
They've hidden, deleted and renamed too many things, and I'm really lazy to relearn all from the beginning as I started with the first free version that came in 2002.
I got a lot of problem with the bugged option like material panel that never shows what it should with no mat preview for exemple.

There is a material preview. As for the other things they've hidden, what are you looking for. Oh and be sure to download the latest version. You had 2.63 right? I have 2.68. Alot of things have been added.

2.68 doesn't allow the use of openCL
support for openCL stopped at 2.63
It doesn't recognize the graphic card and the tahiti system from AMD

Are you using experimental feature set? I doubt it worked before 2.63

EDIT Just checked and looks like it's still in. Just hidden because it doesn't work anyway. Looks like it isn't just Cycles either V-ray and LuxRender both seems to have the same problem as well it seems.

In preference it says there is no compute device for opencl.
Even after putting experimental. And the GUI is blinking like hell when moving the mouse there ( on my laptop msi GX70 ) then
the GUI freeze completely.

Hidden as in you have to enable it while compiling hidden. It doesn't work anyway so don't bother with it.

As for that second part, don't know what's happening there. If you are rendering I guess it's just that there is a lot of strain on the CPU. And beside, it is experimental.
