AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT Linux GPU Compute Performance
Following last week's AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT Linux graphics/gaming review for launch day, today's article is providing an initial look at the GPU compute performance for this new RDNA4-powered ~$349 graphics card on Linux with ROCm 6.4.1. The intent today is on providing an initial look at the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB compute performance up against the NVIDIA GeForce and Intel Arc Graphics competition as well as a few words on the current ROCm compute stack compatibility.
I was using Ubuntu 25.04 for all my testing and there was also able to use the upstream Linux 6.15 kernel with ROCm 6.4.1 on these RDNA4 GPUs when installing without the DKMS modules. However, when running any large language models with the latest LocalScore AI benchmark ended up leading to an indefinite hang.
