Supported GPUs

The following table shows the supported AMD Instinct™ accelerators, and Radeon™ PRO and Radeon GPUs. If a GPU is not listed on this table, it’s not officially supported by AMD.

Accelerators and GPUs listed in the following table support compute workloads (no display information or graphics). If you’re using ROCm with AMD Radeon or Radeon PRO GPUs for graphics workloads, see the Use ROCm on Radeon GPU documentation to verify compatibility and system requirements.

✅: Supported - Official software distributions of the current ROCm release fully support this hardware.

⚠️: Deprecated - The current ROCm release has limited support for this hardware. Existing features and capabilities are maintained, but no new features or optimizations will be added. A future ROCm release will remove support.

❌: Unsupported - The current ROCm release does not support this hardware. The HIP runtime might continue to run applications for an unsupported GPU, but prebuilt ROCm libraries are not officially supported and will cause runtime errors.

Important

Systems with multiple GPUs may require iommu=pt to be set at boot time to prevent application hangs, as described in Issue #5: Application hangs on Multi-GPU systems.

Note

See the Compatibility matrix for an overview of supported GPU architectures across ROCm releases.

Virtualization support

Important

GPU virtualization with KVM-based SR-IOV requires AMD GPU Virtualization Driver (GIM) driver. Refer to GIM Release note.

GPU	Hypervisor	Virtualization technology	Host OS	Guest OS
MI355X	KVM	Passthrough	Ubuntu 24.04, RHEL 9.6	Ubuntu 24.04, RHEL 9.6
	KVM	SR-IOV	Ubuntu 24.04	Ubuntu 24.04
MI350X	KVM	Passthrough	Ubuntu 24.04, RHEL 9.6	Ubuntu 24.04, RHEL 9.6
	KVM	SR-IOV	Ubuntu 24.04	Ubuntu 24.04
MI325X	KVM	Passthrough	Ubuntu 24.04, Ubuntu 22.04, RHEL 9.6, RHEL 9.4	Ubuntu 24.04, Ubuntu 22.04, RHEL 9.6, RHEL 9.4
	KVM	SR-IOV	Ubuntu 22.04	Ubuntu 22.04
MI300X	ESXi	Passthrough	ESXi 8.0 Update 3	Ubuntu 24.04, Ubuntu 22.04
	KVM	Passthrough	Ubuntu 24.04, Ubuntu 22.04, RHEL 9.6, RHEL 9.4	Ubuntu 24.04, Ubuntu 22.04, RHEL 9.6, RHEL 9.4
	KVM	SR-IOV	Ubuntu 22.04	Ubuntu 22.04
MI210	KVM	Passthrough	RHEL 9.4	Ubuntu 22.04, RHEL 9.4
	KVM	SR-IOV	RHEL 9.4	Ubuntu 22.04, RHEL 9.4
V710	KVM	SR-IOV	Ubuntu 24.04	Ubuntu 24.04

Note

AMD Virtualization supports the following:

• Passthrough: All 8 GPUs are assigned directly to a single virtual machine (VM).

• SR-IOV: Provides 1 Virtual Function (VF) per GPU (8 VFs in total), which can be flexibly assigned among multiple VMs (for example, 8 VMs with 1 VF each, 4 VMs with 2 VFs each, or 2 VMs with 4 VFs each)

CPU support

ROCm requires CPUs that support PCIe™ atomics. Modern CPUs after the release of 1st generation AMD Zen CPU and Intel™ Haswell support PCIe atomics.
