### Web
To find a suitable PCI ID, we'll be using [PCI ID Repository](https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/1002) which has a full database of all AMD GPUs. For this example, we'll be creating a Spoof SSDT for the R9 390. For a full list of supported GPUs, please see the [GPU Buyers Guide](https://dortania.github.io/GPU-Buyers-Guide/). The closest match to this GPU would be the 390X, and looking on that site near the top gives us this: To find a suitable PCI ID, we'll be using [PCI ID Repository](https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/1002) which has a full database of all AMD GPUs.

### Linux
If you can run Linux, use command `lspci -vmmnnD -d 1002::0300`
```
$ lspci -vmmnnD -d 1002::0300
Slot: 0000:01:00.0
Class: VGA compatible controller [0300]
Vendor: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] [1002]
Device: Oland [Radeon HD 8570 / R7 240/340 / Radeon 520 OEM] [6611]
SVendor: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. [MSI] [1462]
SDevice: Device [3740]
Rev: 87
```
You can easily get
- Slot ID `0000:01:00.0`, we need it later
- Vendor ID `1002`, all AMD devices have this ID
- Device ID `6611`, this is what we care about
- Device name `Radeon HD 8570 / R7 240/340 / Radeon 520 OEM`, mainly cosmetic

Substitute your SLOTID found above into command `cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/SLOTID/firmware_node/path`, you cat get
