What is the issue?

Hi Ollama team,

I’m encountering an issue with GPU acceleration on an AMD 780M graphics card using the official Ollama 0.13.0 release.

Issue Background:

When using the AMD 780M with driver version 2024.12, Ollama does not utilize GPU acceleration; all computation falls back to the CPU.
Upgrading the AMD driver to the latest 2025.11 version resolves the issue, and GPU acceleration works as expected.
System Info:

Ollama version: 0.13.0
GPU: AMD 780M
OS: [please specify, e.g. Windows 11, Ubuntu 22.04, etc.]
Driver version tested:
2024.12 (No GPU acceleration)
2025.11 (GPU acceleration works)
Steps to Reproduce:

Install AMD 780M graphics card and set driver version to 2024.12
Install Ollama 0.13.0
Attempt model inference; observe that GPU is not utilized
Upgrade driver to 2025.11
Retry inference; GPU acceleration works correctly
Expected Behavior:

Ollama should utilize GPU acceleration on AMD 780M regardless of using either the 2024.12 or 2025.11 drivers.

Actual Behavior:

GPU acceleration only works on 2025.11; does not work on 2024.12.

Logs & Additional Info:

[Attach logs or screenshots if available.]

Could you please help investigate why the older 2024.12 driver is not supported for GPU acceleration, and if possible, provide a fix or workaround?

Thanks!

@dhiltgen commented on GitHub (Nov 21, 2025):

Your iGPU is a gfx1103 which is not supported by ROCm. From the logs, it looks like Vulkan is crashing during initialization. It's unclear exactly where the bug is from the logs, but each AMD Driver comes with a matching Vulkan library, so given upgrading the driver fixed the bug, it seems plausible the bug was in somewhere in the AMD stack and was fixed by AMD.
