RX 9060 XT not working (lemmy.world)

Hello, I received a GPU to replace my GTX 1080. It is an RX 9060 XT pulse, when i tried to install it it didn't work on an Ubuntu version with plasma added later. I did install kubuntu 25.04 because I thought that the issue was with the OS. Though it didn't worked unfortunately, I tried to update the kernel to 6.15 and update mesa drivers. What is weird is that I tried multiple commands and I got it working multiple times, though it didn't stuck, it seems like the AMD GPU drivers is not running. Does anyone have a similar issue ? I'm about to reinstall windows to check if it's not the graphic card that is wrong but it's me. Thank you for your time and your help, Have a nice day

What is it that "doesn't work"? Can you describe precisely what you're expecting, what's happening instead and what you have done?
Also maybe boot from a Live ISO, if that doesn't work, it's probably a hardware issue.
And is the GPJ properly seated in the first PCIe slot and has enough power?

    What's happening is that when I start a game, the game crash because it run out of memory, when I run nvtop it says no GPU to monitor. I'm not sure it's an hardware issue yet, though it worked before, I rebooted and it didn't worked again, tried the same command as before but I should have missed one and couldn't get it to work again. I will try cachyOS as DonutsRMeh says it works flawlessly. I keep you posted in this topic about it.

    Indeed, I was plugged in the GPU so I'm sure it worked but how well, I cojldnt tell. Anyway, I install CachyOS this morning and it seems to work quiet well. I'm not sure I like it yet but I would keep it for a while Thank you for your help :)

    I have the RX 9060XT and it works flawlessly on CachyOS. Maybe try that and see.

    Indeed it worked quite flawlessly on Cachyos, I'm not sure I like it because it don't have any store but I'll give it a shot. Thank you for your help and have a nice day :)

    There are several stores. You can use Bauh or octopi or the cachyos package installer. Run sudo pacman -S bauh octopi in the terminal and let them install. Cachyos package installer is there out of the box. There is also Cachy hello that has some goodies, too.

    I don't know, I didn't try to run cyberpunk from a live USB so I don't know. I will try cachyOS as DonutsRMeh says it works flawlessly. I keep you posted in this topic about it.

    I can’t help you much as I have a 6600XT, but I can say this is probably the wrong community to get that help. It’s not likely KDE-related.

    Before going back to windows, I would boot up an arch-based live iso to see if newer drivers cleared up your problem. I use EndeavourOS, and that has a graphical live environment and should give you a good idea whether your card is working or not. Good luck!

    I think you are right about not being the good community to ask, though I didn't really know which community ask so I try this one. DonutsRMeh says that CachyOS work out of the box, I'm gonna try it with the KDE flavors and reply to this topics if it works.
