Current and demanding games of 2013/2014 will run fluently only low or medium resolutions and detail settings. Thanks to its relatively high memory bandwidth, the performance of the Radeon R7 M260X is similar to the Nvidia GeForce 830M. The core is clocked at up to 715 MHz and can access up to 4 GB of GDDR5 memory (4000 MHz effective, 128 bit). Just like the older Radeon HD 8700M and 8600M series, it is based on the Mars chip (28nm GCN architecture) with 384 shader cores, 24 TMUs and 8 ROPs. Since it's closed-source, only AMD can work on it and give efficient support, and the open-source community can generally not help you with problems.The AMD Radeon R7 M260X is a (lower) mid-range DirectX 12 graphics card for laptops. RadeonDriver - The Wiki page for the open source Radeon driver.īinaryDriverHowto/AMD - The Wiki page for the proprietary AMD/ATI driver "fglrx" which also offers 3D acceleration, and works on newer cards than the "radeon" driver.
To solve this problem, you can install che "hybrid" AMDGPU-Pro driver from AMD, available in this page. The open source AMDGPU driver does not support (for now) the HDMI audio. To solve the problem you can install the AMDGPU-Pro driver (available for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS only). *2 → it has been reported that the Radeon RX 550 graphics card does not work with the AMDGPU driver pre-installed in Ubuntu. Install Ubuntu 14.04 (with kernel Linux 3.13.0) + proprietary fglrx driver. Install the latest HWE stack in Ubuntu 16.04 (or install directly the latest Ubuntu 16.04.X LTS iso) *1 → Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 with kernel Linux 4.4.0: if you find problems with the Radeon R7 M260/M265 (Topaz) or R9 M395X (Tonga) graphics cards, you can try to: This guide shows you how to use the open source AMDGPU driver for some AMD graphics cards and APUs. What this means is that AMD's "proprietary" driver will be based on its open source driver!
Support for AMDGPU begins with Ubuntu 16.04 - which, incidentally, does not support fglrx - but it is also available for Ubuntu 14.04.5 with the HWE stack Xenial (check if the xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu package is installed).ĪMDGPU-PRO is the open source AMDGPU driver with a proprietary overlay.
No HD 6000 or prior cards will be supported.
This means that as development progresses, some select cards as far back as HD 7000 cards will be supported. AMDGPU supports a growing number of cards, but will not be available for pre-GCN (Graphics Core Next) architecture cards. AMDGPU is under intense development in coordination with the larger open source community. It is a compliment to the open source Radeon driver, which works with graphics cards not supported by AMDGPU. AMDGPU is AMD's open source graphics driver for the latest AMD Radeon graphics cards.
