minus-squareVash63@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down1·10 hours agoWhat does that have to do with AMD’s driver support? AMD’s Linux Vulkan driver (AMDVLK) was so late and bad that Red Hat and Valve had to make their own (RADV), which is the default in Fedora and SteamOS. AMD’s first party drivers are still garbage.
minus-squareCosmic Cleric@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·18 minutes ago AMD’s first party drivers are still garbage. As I mentioned in my comment you replied to, I use Linux, and not Windows, so can’t speak (today) towards AMD’s Windows drivers. For me, I let Linux worry about the drivers, so I don’t have to. Best decision I’ve ever made, PC build wise. So nice to get away from NVidia and not worry about graphics drivers. This comment is licensed under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0
