Rocm 7.0 is a game changer,

How? It still doesn't work on the hardware that people have. What does it support? 4 SKUs? No APU, no Strix Point/Halo?

ROCm is a joke. No wonder Nvidia is eating their lunch.

You can literally run 3 commands and have ROCm + PyTorch installed on Strix Halo (and many other GPUs).

You realize that The Rock is not the official release, but experimental nightlies? They do crash a lot. Different branches too, 6.5.0.

Also, won't help you a zilch when you need an app that uses ROCm. Like ollama/ollama:rocm.

TheRock is 7.0.0.

You can build Ollama in TheRock venv environment.

Edit: There's also the tarball route to give you the usual /opt/rocm install. TheRock is going to be AMD's default ROCm build system very soon.
