20-Way AMD / NVIDIA Linux Gaming Benchmarks For The 2018 Holidays

[pal666]

Is there any proper write up somewhere for getting amdgpu with a rx 570 (or similar model) up and running on fedora 29 (28 at worst) ?

580 (similar model) works out of the box. like install fedora, boot, it works

nice to see my card dominating in performance per dollar

Like as the beginning...?!

I meant 1080 resolution :/ sometimes i forget about overlap that like. like what else could it mean right? lol.

Ya, lol.
So, second your and my request, then...;-)

As for the article itself. Is no one else really interested in the 1080 benchmark?

RX285 (Tonga) too, please. - Not that I for myself own one, but...

Who told you that you will ever need a 700 W PSU with 1 single GPU? Well I literally burnt a 300 W PSU with a GTX 295 but even if you OC hitting 400 W combined is hard to reach. i7-2600 + RX550 worked fine with 250 W PSU. If nobody told you before: it is wasted money+energy (because a PSU is more efficent with higher loads) total buy totally oversized PSUs.

AMD is bad for the environment.

It seems at certain resolutions / frequencies you might not have seen a problem. bang on 1080p 60hz seems to be fine for most people. I'm 1080p 59.93hz or something. and when the auto mode changes the frequency that's when you get the corruption.

I'm on KDE Neon/Ubuntu 18.04, running the 4.15 kernel. I tried some refresh rates (including the one you mentioned) and it is fine. My monitor is a older Benq that can go up to 120Hz. I also using a DisplayPort cable.

Like I said, try running some other distros in a live USB drive and see what happens. Maybe is just some problem with your installation.

Even with the strong RadeonSI OpenGL performance in Deux Ex: Mankind Divided,

OK so 4.19.2 and sure enough clock gating kicks in. Along with some really strange black vertical line corruption that waxes lyrical up and down the screen. the boot time was most impressive tho. i tried with dc=0 and got very different corruption, like ghosting with specles and green and pink blurs. rebooted back into 4.18 for now. :/ tried the Tearfree and vblank_mode (s). Anyone got ideas?

EDIT: I have 3 screens hooked up and i usually turn on vsync (previously nvidia triple buffered)

I have that card. It should work out of the box in any 2018 distro. Have you tested it in any other distro with a flashdrive, just to make sure it is ok?
