Performance raised by 2 owners
“Ex: human fall flat (very old, wont run), deus ex mankind divided (can't recall why but I elected to install the proton version, I think performance was poor or mouse control was funky).”

I play lots of games on a AMD GPU (RX 7600) for about a year and I can't remember a game that had graphical issues (eg driver bugs). [...] Just check that games aren't installing some Linux build which are inevitably extremely out of date and probably wont run. Ex: human fall flat (very old, wont run), deus ex mankind divided (can't recall why but I elected to install the proton version, I think performance was poor or mouse control was funky). [...]
Anecdotal, but I've got a Radeon RX 7600 at the moment and was using an RX 580 before. [...]
I did try using Bazzite but I had weird issues with stuttering/throttling on the RX 7600 which made most games totally unplayable (I confirmed the same hardware worked fine on a windows install). That was a while ago though, it's probably worth me trying again. [...]
[...] I have a Radeon RX 7600 & Ryzen 9 7900X3D for reference. There is mention on the arch wiki about enabling multi-threaded compiles, but also I have read you perhaps dont even need to precompile them now and possibly get better performance as the JIT compiles via a different vulkan framework (VKEXTgraphicspipelinelibrary). I disabled pre-caching (which effects the compile too afaict) and never noticed any stuttering, possibly past some level of compute it's inconsequential. I also noticed that sometimes the launcher would say "pre-compiling" but actually be downloading the cache which was a lot slower on my internet. [...]
Qwen 3.5 9B Q4KM solved this using 10K tokens in 5 mins on a RX 7600. The answer is exactly what you have posted. I am impressed by Qwen!
Before I upgraded to my new PC (managed to get it just before AI sent prices into the stratosphere), I was using an older PC (2016ish) without discrete GPU. [...] My new PC (has an RX 7600) also runs it without any problems. [...]
I’m using Nix and setting HSAOVERRIDEGFXVERSION. It’s not working on my GPU (Radeon RX7600)
The fact I'm playing this at 20 FPS on Firefox with a RX 7600 Vanilla Minecraft is known for being awful for FPS even outside of a browser. There's a reason most people use a whole slate of performance mods just to get actual decent performance. [...] Install the performance mods and I can get 120fps with fancy graphics and shaders.)
The fact I'm playing this at 20 FPS on Firefox with a RX 7600 shows how much web browsers have regressed in 10 years, not how much they've advanced.
Use the PyTorch Nightly build. The ROCm libraries themselves have been built for the RX 7600 (gfx1102) since ROCm 5.4/5.5, but PyTorch itself wasn't enabled until a few weeks ago. The RX 7600 is still not 'officially supported' on Linux, but I have an RX 7600 XT and I haven't encountered any issues in my (admittedly intermittent) use of the card in AI applications. [...]
I used rocm on an RX 7600 a month after launch. Having no official support does not at all mean it doesn't work.
I have a Rx 7600 XT that I purchased to run Ollama LLMs. [...]
