Description

Vulkan applications can be launched with prefixes that select RADV, AMDVLK, or AMDGPU-PRO implementations. It is useful for users testing which Vulkan driver works best for a game, tool, or workload.

Driver selection can change performance, stability, and rendering behavior. Keep notes about the chosen prefix and test critical applications before relying on a driver switch.
