Like is it vanilla Ubuntu, with Unity as your DM, or Gnome, Budgie, LXDE, KDE, etc?
It was a previous upgrade from Ubuntu GNOME 17.xx (whichever version was before the two merged) and now I have both vanilla Ubuntu and GNOME Wayland & Xorg login options (4 total).
It could be the multiple DE’s causing conflicts. Usually, you only want one DE at a time.
However, in that thread you can see I commented about the powerstates being fixed in >=4.9 kernel version.
How do I change the power states?
One moment, I need to dig them up.

Oh wait you don’t have those files
Yeah I ran them manually with sudo - no dice.
Hmmmmmm.
Are my boot parameters correct?
radeon.si_support=0 radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.si_support=1 amdgpu.cik_support=1 amdgpu.dc=1 amdgpu.dpm=1
Oh perhaps it’s because it’s card1 - there’s an iGPU as well:
:~$ ls /sys/class/drm/
card0/ card0-HDMI-A-1/ card0-HDMI-A-3/ card1/ card1-DP-3/ card1-DVI-D-1/ renderD128/ ttm/
card0-DP-1/ card0-HDMI-A-2/ card0-VGA-1/ card1-DP-2/ card1-DP-4/ card1-HDMI-A-4/ renderD129/ version
Update: yup that did the trick… going to test now

It’s set to high but I’m getting 2fps on Unigine Valley even so.
I’ve got the Radeon Profile utility running as well and the temps are 60c idle doing nothing so this doesn’t really seem like a win even if it worked.
Is the AMDGPU driver in use by the 390? Blacklisting radeon via blacklist.conf never worked for me on Ubuntu. What’s the output of lspci -k?
These were the boot parameters I used from the arch wiki:
radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1 amdgpu.dpm=1 amdgpu.dc=1
Well, this is certainly interesting…

Hmmm, well amdgpu driver is in use.
Based on the arch wiki SI is for southern island cards and CIK is for sea island cards. I believe the 390 was a sea island card. Maybe just try the CIK parameters as a test.

Alright I may have figured it out… I disabled the intel iGPU in the bios and forced only the PCIE and poof, I’m getting 60fps in Rocket League & 30-50fps at 2k in Valley.
It’s as if it was rendering the games with the iGPU regardless of which monitor the game was on. Anyone have any idea what was going on there?
Going to run a Rise of the Tomb Raider bench when it’s downloaded.
Update: … Rise of the Tomb Raider just loads a black options window - can’t play…

:Does the radeon item in Kernel modules: radeon, amdgpu mean anything bad?
That just means which modules are installed on the kernel and are compatible with the device.
You probably need to install both i686 and amd64 versions of vulkan and deps. I’m not familiar packages and multilib on Ubuntu based distros though, so I can’t really help you too much there.
