Big Navi ROCm Support

Hi @Agustin_Aguilar. There was a new ROCm release 4.0.1, but it doesn’t mention 6000 series. It seems that there is nothing that can be done right now. (Not willing to go through the code to modify it.)

I wouldn’t loose hope. It appears that people that work on ROCm officially said that support is coming for RDNA 2 and dodged the question about RDNA 1. That means it is coming but we don’t know how long will it take. It would be helpful to take a look at the release date of the Radeon VII and the date that ROCm support came out for it. That can give us some kind of idea how long it will take.

My information indicates that Radeon Instinct MI 100 is ~2-3 months away. And since they have the support for it ready they might take the time to start working on RDNA 2 support.

Last thing to consider is that it appears that AMD provides support for gaming GPUs when they are released together with a compute GPUs. That is why we don’t see RDNA 1 support. Simply there is no compute card that requires support and AMD won’t waste resources on a gaming GPU support.
