# C++ AMP Overview

> [!NOTE]
> C++ AMP headers are deprecated, starting with Visual Studio 2022 version 17.0.
> Including any AMP headers will generate build errors. Define `_SILENCE_AMP_DEPRECATION_WARNINGS` before including any AMP headers to silence the warnings.

C++ Accelerated Massive Parallelism (C++ AMP) accelerates execution of C++ code by taking advantage of data-parallel hardware such as a graphics processing unit (GPU) on a discrete graphics card. By using C++ AMP, you can code multi-dimensional data algorithms so that execution can be accelerated by using parallelism on heterogeneous hardware. The C++ AMP programming model includes multidimensional arrays, indexing, memory transfer, tiling, and a mathematical function library. You can use C++ AMP language extensions to control how data is moved from the CPU to the GPU and back, so that you can improve performance.
