AiKMSpark - Prerequisites (Windows)
ASRock Industrial
Platform: AMD Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 395 (Radeon 8060S) - gfx1151
Last updated: 2026-09
================================================================================

AiKMSpark runs language models on the Radeon 8060S integrated GPU. Two AMD
components must be installed before AiKMSpark:

  1. AMD Graphics Driver (AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition)
  2. AMD ROCm for gfx1151

Requirements: Windows 11, administrator rights, internet connection, and
about 30 GB of free disk space.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STEP 1 - Install the AMD Graphics Driver
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Go to the AMD driver download page:

  https://www.amd.com/en/support/download/drivers.html

Select your product:

  Processors
  > AMD Ryzen Processors with Radeon Graphics
  > AMD Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 395 w/ Radeon 8060S Graphics
  > Windows 11 - 64-Bit Edition

Download AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition and follow the installer. Restart
when prompted.

Check: open Device Manager and confirm AMD Radeon 8060S Graphics appears
under Display adapters with no warning icon.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STEP 2 - Install AMD ROCm
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Go to the AMD ROCm installation page:

  https://rocm.docs.amd.com/en/latest/install/rocm.html

Use the selector on that page and choose:

  Device family      AMD Ryzen
  Ryzen APU          AMD Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 395 (Radeon 8060S) (gfx1151)
  Operating system   Windows

The page then shows the installation steps for this hardware. Follow them
from top to bottom, including the prerequisites section.

Selecting the correct APU matters. ROCm packages are built per architecture,
and a package for another model will not run on the Radeon 8060S.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STEP 3 - Install AiKMSpark
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Download the AiKMSpark installer from the ASRock Industrial website and run
it.

AiKMSpark does not include language model weights. After installation, use
the recommended model list in the AiKMSpark documentation to download the
GGUF file you want to use.
