You do not need to install WINE nor Lutris if you don't play any Win7/10 apps/games on your linux system.
#HOW DO I INSTALL AMD APU DRIVERS DRIVERS#
I always install WINE first, then the linux gaming AMD drivers from the webpage above, then Lutris.
#HOW DO I INSTALL AMD APU DRIVERS UPDATE#
This will also allow the Mint Update to obtain GPU driver updates (called MESA) without hosing up your system, unlike the AMD GPU proprietary drivers. To install the linux gaming drivers, you can follow the Lutris instructions found here. GOOD NEWS THOUGH, the linux community has created some spectacularly performing AMD GPU drivers that are better than the stock linux kernel drivers and the AMD proprietary drivers (including the Win drivers)!!! With one exception, in that there are no easily working linux OpenCL drivers outside of the AMD proprietary drivers. Therefore, any Mint Updates to your system should never include the Kernel, desktop or any libraries that the AMD proprietary drivers rely on. They are finicky about your xorg config and additional config files related to your desktop choice (Ubuntu = gnome3, but Mint= cinnamon or mate),Ĥ. They are extremely sensitive to the version of libraries installed and active on your linux system, thus even using a version of Mint as opposed to straight Ubuntu (which the AMD proprietary drivers are designed for), may cause unresolved dependencies,ģ. They are extremely sensitive to any Kernel changes, meaning if you change the kernel before or after installing the drivers, the proprietary graphics driver will likely stop working,Ģ. I do not recommend the linux AMD proprietary GPU drivers for the following reasons.ġ. Therefore, you can reasonably compare GPU framerates between Mint and Win7, expecting that Win10 framerates will perform worse than Win7, or at best, only slightly better than Win7.ī. On the newest hardware the increase in performance between Win7 and Win10 is less than 5%,ģ. Win7 had better performance for older hardware than Win10,Ģ. I do not use Win10 because of all the cyberstalking spyware and clandestine draconian licensing terms, **so** I can't compare performance between Mint and Win10, HOWEVER.ġ. I use two different AMD GPUs (RX590, RX460) with Linux Mint and the GPUs perform better than on Win7, including Minecraft.īut before sharing additional info, please note the following caveats.Ī.

He says whether he uses the DVI cable or the VGA cable (with adapter) on the GPU he doesn't get an image anymore (yes he tested both monitor's inputs). He now calls me and says he bought a DVI cable to replace the current setup (VGA cable with DVI to VGA adapter on GPU's DVI port). Everything worked fine and we gamed a bit. I then changed the video output from the mobo's I/O to the GPU's.

I installed the card, installed the latest NVidia Geforce experience and disabled the AMD GPU (APU's GPU) in device manager. He had an AMD APU and was not satisfied with gaming performance. As stated in a past thread ( ) I added a GTX 750 TI to a friend's crappy build.
