In the end the new GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card ended out just slightly above the Radeon RX 7600 in terms of overall performance. The Radeon RX 6000/7000 series on their open-source Linux GPU driver stack continue to perform very competitively with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30/40 series and their respective proprietary driver stack. Thanks to the work by AMD, Valve, Red Hat, and other parties on the open-source Radeon Linux driver stack the Linux gaming scene continues to become quite vibrant while NVIDIA also continues providing their first-rate binary Linux driver support on Linux that remains in excellent shape largely due to the shared driver code-base with Windows.
That’s unfortunate. Which model was it out of curiosity? I know they’ve had open source GPU support for a long time, so it’s surprising that one fell through the cracks.
AMD Radeon HD 8790M in a Dell Latitude, which seems like a predecessor to AMDs “professional” FireGL/FirePro series.
Should be GCN 1.0 so should be supported now, especially if you force the
amdgpukernel driver. Although I’m sure you’ve long since abandoned it.If it was a dual/hybrid GPU type setup which was common at the time, that also complicates things but it should be okay now.
Thanks, I may give that old apart-falling piece a shot.
I was working on integrated Intel graphics most of the time.
