Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 77505, member: 636"] AMD dropped ROCm 7.1.1, and RDNA 4 owners can finally run AI workloads natively on Windows instead of being stuck with Linux or janky workarounds. The new driver support means PyTorch works directly through ROCm, which cuts out the need for Windows Subsystem for Linux and makes setup way less painful. What used to take a month of tinkering apparently takes like an hour at most. The setup process requires specific AMD drivers, Miniconda, Git, and Python 3.12 since newer Python versions break compatibility with ROCm wheels. Users need to install PyTorch through conda environments, clone ComfyUI from GitHub, and then grab models like SDXL Turbo to start generating images locally. The guide walks through the entire process from environment creation to actually running prompts, and testers confirmed their GPUs show up properly in the system after installation. [/QUOTE]
