Updating the RadeonHD Driver Compatibility List

Posted by Hans de Ruiter

I hope that people are enjoying the updated RadeonHD driver with Radeon HD 5000 and 6000 series support. While most of the feedback has been good, there have been a few reports of problems with a few specific graphics card models. Given that the driver supports such a wide range of cards (from the Radeon X1000 series through to the Radeon HD 6000 series), it is inevitable that some specific models will have trouble.

While the problems with specific models should be solved eventually, it would be much easier for people to simply buy a model that is known to work. The RadeonHD driver hardware compatibility list exists exactly for this purpose. It lists the cards that have been tested, indicating if they work properly or not. If you are planning to buy a Radeon HD card for use with AmigaOS, please check out this list first.

NOTE: Please also look at the motherboards section of the compatibility list, as not all motherboards are able to handle Radeon HD cards properly.

Help Needed

The compatibility list is only as good as the information provided. Since there is no way that I could ever test all available hardware, I need your help. If you have a card that is not on this list, or whose entry is incorrect, then please post the full details to this thread, or send them via email.

The details required are:

• Manufacture;
• Model name;
• The manufacturer's ID (if available;
• The newest version of the driver that it was tested with; and
• If it works, and any pertinent notes (e.g., if it partially works, describe what works and doesn't).

Thanks in advance for your help in keeping this list up-to-date.
