Valve Developer Enhances Support for Old AMD GPUs on Linux
Valve developer Timur Kristóf has made significant improvements to the AMDGPU driver, enabling support for the Radeon HD 7870 XT on Linux. This development addresses long-standing issues with the 'harvested' GPUs, which were previously unsupported due to their unique configurations. The improvements involve changes to the AMDGPU driver to handle the TCC cache configuration more effectively, allowing these GPUs to function properly under Linux. This update is part of a broader effort to enhance the performance and compatibility of older AMD graphics cards on Linux, providing users with better out-of-the-box support and performance.
