How easy is it to run stable diffusion on framework’s amd graphics card? (sopuli.xyz)

I don’t know much about graphics cards, but the framework laptop seems to offer an “AMD Radeon™ RX 7700S” and stable diffusion requires Linux ROCm.

It’s not completely clear if ROCm runs on AMD Radeon™ RX 7700S, so I was wondering if anyone had any experience with setting it up on framework.

I see. Thank you.

Would keeping it plugged in or removing the battery help with the battery issue?

Edit: Also, is there any way to force the GPU to throttle earlier to reduce damage?

I think that would still be a bad idea - running billions of parameters on a laptop - because it's not just the battery, you might also want to think about how much the heat-sink can handle cooling. However, there's nothing wrong with running the model a few times. If that were a desktop GPU, it would handle a load as heavy as that easily.

Might I suggest you try using KOALA once? It has way lesser parameters than your typical large-scale diffusion model, so it will be forgiving on your device. Best of luck with your attempt.
