What driver should I install for AMD Radeon Vega 3 and how? – Ubuntu 21.10

Today I bought a small, used 11" laptop Lenovo IdeaPad 1 with AMD Athlon Silver 3050E (Zen+) with Radeon Vega 3. What drivers should I install and how? I want to play some less demanding 3D games.

When I checked Additional Drivers in Ubuntu, there are no proprietary drivers there.

Also, I can’t find any drivers for Linux on AMD’s Download page.

I’m new to linux so I’m requesting detailed, step by step instructions. Thank you for your help.

>Solution :

Drivers for AMD GPUs are included in Linux kernel. There is no need to install anything.

There are amdgpu-pro drivers that can be installed for some models, but in 99% of cases there is no benefit. Also not all kernels and GPU models are supported.

AMD didn’t release Pro drivers for Ryzen 3 as far as I know.
