AMD has announced that it has extended ROCm and PyTorch support to the Radeon RX 7900 XT graphics card. This comes ahead of AMD’s Advancing AI event, which is scheduled for early December.

Last month, AMD announced ROCm 5.7 and PyTorch support for the Radeon RX 7900 XTX and the Radeon PRO W7900 GPUs. This marked the first official support for ROCm/PyTorch on RDNA3 graphics cards. Now, the support has been expanded to include the Radeon RX 7900 XT. AMD has only provided ROCm support for the 7900 level products, with no official communication regarding support for lower-end Radeon RX 7000 series and Radeon Pro 7000 series products.

AMD has released ROCm 5.7, the latest version of its GPU compute stack, Phoronix reports. The update includes a new “hipTensor” library, extended support for the ROCgdb debugger with Fortran and OMPD, and optimizations to the rocRAND and MIVisionX libraries. However, there is no official support for new RDNA3 GPUs yet, with speculation that it will be included in ROCm 6.0. The release notes for ROCm 6.0 suggest that it will have fundamental changes and will not be backwards compatible with ROCm 5.x. In terms of supported hardware, only the Radeon VII is officially supported, along with some Radeon Pro and AMD Instinct products. ROCm 5.7 also brings improvements to HIP printf() handling, a beta release of LLVM Address Sanitizer with GPU support, optimizations, and various fixes. More details can be found in the ROCm 5.7 release documentation.
