The title is the full description of the question. lspci & neofetch output. I cant find the exact model of my GPU because the output from neofetch shows too many configurations. Which of them is correct?

I followed this link. The situation is very similar to that of mine but none of the answers helped.

If you feel to downvote the question, please leave out a comment where I can find additional info on the matter.

  • You can see the model in lspci output. – Pilot6 Jun 02 '20 at 12:49
  • @Pilot6, in lspci output, which is the model? The VGA controller or the Display controller? – schegu Jun 02 '20 at 12:52

    You have two GPUs. One is Intel the other is AMD. You see the same in neofetch. – Pilot6 Jun 02 '20 at 12:53
  • Does that mean I have an Hybrid GPU? if that is the case, Which is my exact AMDGPU model? Is my AMDGPU functional as it should be? – schegu Jun 02 '20 at 12:55
  • Please don't post screenshots of text. I can't copy text from a picture and write an answer. You can copy text from a terminal. Please [edit] your question. Yes you have hybrid graphics. – Pilot6 Jun 02 '20 at 12:56
  • @Pilot6, can you please take a look now? I believe I did what you expected. – schegu Jun 02 '20 at 13:07

You have hybrid graphics.

The integrated GPU is Intel UHD Graphics 620.

The discrete GPU is AMD ATI Radeon R7 M260/M265 / M340/M360 / M440/M445 / 530/535 / 620/625 Mobile.

You can check if your AMD GPU is working by running

DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep OpenGL

According to your output it is an AMD ICELAND chip and it works.

It should be R7 M260.

  • Thanks for taking intrest in the question doing needful edits. Does this mean that I cant really find out the model of my AMDGPU? Like is it M260? M265? M625? Which exactly? correct me if Im wrong. – schegu Jun 02 '20 at 13:19
  • It doesn't matter from the system point of view. These are marketing names depending on RAM and some settings. Why does it matter? – Pilot6 Jun 02 '20 at 13:24
  • I just wanted to know the model. Thats all. Anyway, Thanks for your time. Sorry if I was asking too many illogical questions. – schegu Jun 02 '20 at 13:30
  • Most likely it is R7 M260. You can check the code by lspci -nn | grep Display. And then try to Google the model. – Pilot6 Jun 02 '20 at 13:31

Regarding the part identifying the dedicated graphics card, I had a similar story (on Ubuntu 20.04). However I check it, my system identifies my dedicated graphics card as some variant or subset of the following:

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Cape Verde PRO / Venus LE / Tropo PRO-L [Radeon HD 8830M / R7 250 / R7 M465X]

It is because the current open source driver, installed automatically with the system, radeon, can identify it as such.

But it's just a blanket identification. I think it's like a closest match the driver can assume, based on features and compatibility. With this driver in place, seemingly, this is the closest to what my Linux system can reveal about this card.

However, my Dell laptop has a service tag, and submitting this service tag on the Dell support website enables one to download a spreadsheet (actually, CSV file) with the exact list of hardware in the specific device.

This is how I learned that my graphics card, actually, is an AMD FirePro W5130M.

Studying the card's technical info on this website, it appears that the open driver has came pretty close with the identification.

However, in possession of the accurate designation, I could figure out that the semi-open, optionally installable amdgpu-pro driver has direct stated compatibility with this card; it is sitting in the list:

amdgpu-pro driver compatibility chart

At this point, I am in the position to start pondering whether to install amdgpu-pro in the hopes of higher performance, stability, and/or better handling.
