Black screen after amdgpu installation

As I could never solve my graphics problems, I never used Ubuntu on my desktop. After a long time, I decided to install Ubuntu, but still couldn't succeed.



I installed ubuntu 18.04.1 with nomodeset, as it wasn't run without it. I checked the "install the third party" option, it was the option that helped me running Ubuntu without nomodeset I guess.



So I installed the Ubuntu and logged in. But I had a performance drop, like laggy scrolling down on browsers and laggy window dragging. System also wasn't all smooth in general. I tried using Unity Engine, which didn't go beyond 5-10 fps, and Unigine Heaven benchmark, which gave me 1-2 fps and lock the system that I needed to reboot.



./amdgpu-pro-install -y --opencl=legacy


I run this command, it succeeded, when I rebooted it freezes on Ubuntu logo, after 5 minute of waiting it went to black screen. Num lock wasn't reacting so computer was being locked.



I couldn't find any similar problem and solution. So I went to recovery mode and run amdgpu-pro-uninstall and made the system working again. It is running open source radeon driver now. I thought amdgpu didn't support my card but I realized it does
