I upgraded my trusty old GTX1060 to a RX7600XT. Everything works as it should except for blender. It doesn’t find the GPU as a rendering device.
Since the driver manager states “No drivers needed” and when running glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version"
in the terminal, it outputs
OpenGL version string: 4.6 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 24.2.8-1ubuntu1~24.04.1
I figured I had all important drivers installed.
I don’t know why blender won’t find the GPU. Do you have any advice for a newbie?

Solution: Didn’t have ROCm installed. For anyone with the same issue, here is a link to the guide I used. I don’t know if these were necessary for the solution, but here are the amd drivers, just in case ;)
Had it installed via steam, gave it a shot, sadly didn’t work. But thanks still :D
