I am trying to install arch linux on my desktop rigs. I keep encounter this error. What happens is that the fans of my r9 380 video card would spin loudly at their maximum rpm. Then the terminal gave me the error below. Note this is booted from a live usb and that every other linux distro does the exact same thing. There is no issue when running under windows, however. Anyone know the reason? I did not have this issue one year ago. Every linux distros booted fine but this month when i tried to clean reinstall linux, all the distros have this exact same error. fans spin loudly at max, amdgpu ring test failure. What is ring test anyways? software issues or hardware?

i had issues with manjaro linux on an r9 290x... the solution i found was to use the older radeon driver, but that harms performance....

Looks to be a problem with the Linux kernel: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=223458

Try all of these

  • amdgpu.dc=0
  • amdgpu.dpm=0
  • amdgpu.aspm=0
  • amdgpu.bapm=0
  • modprobe.blacklist=amdgpu

It is a hardware issue. Now my video card doesn't output anything to the monitor at all, even on Windows. Switching to the onboard integrated radeon 3000 on my motherboard worked no problem. I guess I will be using that for basic graphics until I get a new video card.
