System Information
Operating system: Linux Mint
Graphics card: AMD Radeon 470 Nitro Limited Edition (Idk if that helps)

Blender Version
Broken: 2.82a

Short description of error
Ok so, I was looking at a Blender tutorial then in the tutorial they said to switch to cycles render mode in layout view and put GPU compute so I was happy because my AMD Radeon Sapphire 470 (Pretty much equivalent to a GTX 1050 Ti) would do great I though but when I tried I looked at my settings and it said that there was no GPU so I was confused I tried searching on the internet but nothing helped, I am new to Linux and Blender so I don't do well at fixing stuff. could you help me?

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
It might work for you but you just go in your preferences and system tab and see if there are GPU's available for Blender to use.

You need to make sure the proprietary AMD drivers are installed. Refer here for help: https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/faq/gpu-635
