Hello guys, how are you? I spent some time searching about HIP driver for Blender but I didn’t find the answer to my question. Will I be able to run openCL and HIP on the same machine? I don’t know if this is the right place to ask something like this, but I don’t know where to search for help. Since I use Linux and to use Davinci Resolve I need the openCL proprietary driver, but Blender has now switched to HIP, could this cause a conflict? Will I be able to have both drivers on the same computer? Thanks for your attention.
There will be an option there, there are no conflicts whatsoever, and you can use whatever is available and your GPU is capable.
Also, from their dev talk
Here is the report on the development stage for HIP devices in Blender

From AUR, you might need this:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/hip-runtime-amd
Or for Nvidia, this:
