EGPU support

Hello Valve team,

Thank you for adding eGPU support to SteamOS 3.7 — it's great to see that devices like the ASUS ROG X and Lenovo Legion Go S are now recognised, including support for the ASMedia ASM246x USB4 controller.

I’m currently using a dock with an AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT eGPU, and while the controller from the eGPU is recognised but not functional, full functionality requires updated system components. Specifically, I’d like to request updates to the Mesa drivers, Linux kernel, and Linux firmware packages to ensure proper support for newer AMD Radeon 7000 and 9000 series GPUs. This would allow the 9070 XT to be supported and I know a lot of others would jump back from Bazzite to SteamOS.

With these updates, modern AMD eGPUs would be fully compatible, enabling users to test and play with next-gen graphics hardware on SteamOS.

Thanks again for your continued support and development.

re an update. So its all supported however due to the mesa and linux version currently the 7000 and 9000 series cards are not supported.

Do you think it would recognise 6000 series?

Elivagar 7 月 20 日上午 2:09

yes, i am very interested in this question. is there full support for amd egpu in linux?

Mdragwolf 7 月 21 日上午 2:59

So yes there is egpu support in linux. You go into thunderbolt however your device needs to support it as well. So in this case I am using the lenovo legion go s which supports egpu. I think 6000 series is supported btw.

Please add the 7000 series I have a 7800M and a 7600 MXT. Honestly I'd never go back to Windows if it the EGPU support is good.

yeah 7000 and 9000 support need adding quite honestly most people will be using amd for gaming I see nvidea dropping off support and heading to their cash cow being AI.

A lot of people would love to have their steam device connected to a tv so we can game on the go and on the big screen. Quite honestly lenovo legion go s have showed its possible within thunderbolt settings on desktop mode for older graphics cards to be used on the device. I just am holding out on steamOS 3.8 to support egpus.

We just need valve/steamOS to drop some in game support in gaming mode for it to be perfected. But also the big thing would be getting the 9070xt and even some nice 7000 series cards playable on steamOS.

Valve is working to make it robust for desktop release which I see coming soon.

I have a Radeon 7600xt inside a Minusforum EGPU, it works well with my SteamDeck but I've only tried it in Windows 11, in Steam Os the video Output works, but the EGPU is not detected, so the Graphics processing it's made by the SteamDeck's APU, not the external GPU. I wanted to try installing the AMD drivers for Linux to see if it's detected now, but I think It won't work

Btw it works now

Over USB 4 it works, but now I've tried again and now SteamOS detects the OCULINK EGPU as well but I don't know how to post a photo here

Thank's a lot, but it's fully working, the issue I used to had was that SteamOS didn't used to recognize the EGPU so I had to install Windows 11 on a external SSD to use the EGPU with my SteamDeck, but now it's working and I'm very glad of it. If you want to try it, I have a Minisforum MGA 1 Occuling EGPU with an AMD 7600M XT GPU connected using the SSD port with a Occulink adapter, and the SteamDeck's SSD It's connected using a SSD enclosure connected through the EGPU's USB hub

ah the actual steam deck is not supported via usb 4 I am using a lenovo legion go s with usb4 with display port. The hardware is the issue. Yeah I have seen docks with another ssd enclosure on the back with fans on amazon that may suit your user case if your wanting to tinker and use steamOS.

For me personally tinkering is the the fun part
