AMDGPU-PRO

Article description::AMDGPU-PRO is a closed source graphic component that operates on top of the open source [[AMDGPU drivers for newer AMD/ATI Radeon graphics cards.]]

Users whose main use for their graphics card is gaming and other general graphical hardware acceleration, should use the open source AMDGPU drivers instead, since the performance of the open source drivers can be as much 100% more compared to AMDGPU-PRO.

AMDGPU-PRO is currently not distributed within Gentoo's default package manager.
