AMD rx580 not supporting Blender 2.93 GPU

Question

I recently Bought the AMD Rx580 graphics card for my blender . But the latest Version of blender didnt support my graphics card since its using HIP.. So i tried to install the older version 2.93 to check whether OpenCL can support my graphics card or not for GPU rendering Cycles...But still it shows " No compatible GPUs is found" as shown in below image .. What should i do now.. Someone help me please

As mentioned in Blender 2.93's Cycles GPU requirements documentation, your GPU should theoretically function, but you need to install specifically the "Pro" drivers from AMD, which should be this one for an RX 580. Try a clean installation of that driver if needed, reboot, and see how it goes. Otherwise, I would suggest trying to report a bug, but I doubt the devs will do anything for an unmaintained version. — L0Lock, Oct 26 '23 at 02:43
Can You tell me Which specific drivers I should install? I tried Raedon ProRender Version 3.6, but when i try to enable the addon Blender automatically closes or crashes — Yukthy Parthy, Oct 26 '23 at 02:49
ProRender isn't a driver, it's a render engine. Again, see my answer. — L0Lock, Oct 26 '23 at 02:53

As mentioned in Blender 2.93's Cycles GPU requirements documentation:

OpenCL is supported for GPU rendering with AMD graphics cards. Blender supports GPU rendering on graphics cards with GCN generation 2 and above. To make sure your GPU is supported, see the list of GCN generations with the GCN generation and supported graphics cards.

On Windows and Linux, the latest Pro drivers should be installed from the AMD website.

Your GPU uses GCN4 (source), so it should theoretically function. But you need to install specifically the "Pro" drivers from AMD, which for your RX 580 should be there:
Radeon™ RX 580 Drivers & Support | AMD

Try a clean installation of that driver if needed: uninstall whatever AMD driver you have, reboot, install the new one, reboot, and only then open Blender to see how it goes.

Otherwise, I would suggest trying to report a bug using Blender's menu Help > Report A Bug, but I doubt the devs will do anything for an unmaintained version.

again, see my answer ;) – L0Lock Oct 26 '23 at 03:00
Thank You so much I followed the steps and installed driver..but linux doesnt allowing to install it .."permission denied" is displayed . – Yukthy Parthy Oct 30 '23 at 02:36
BSE is only for questions about Blender (plus I don't know much about Linux). If you need help installing drivers on Linux I suggest you to ask that specific question on [SU], don't forget to mention precisely which Linux distro you are using as answer vary from that. – L0Lock Oct 30 '23 at 13:59
Okay Thank you for your time – Yukthy Parthy Nov 01 '23 at 06:15
