> If you already installed ROCm and PyTorch, skip Docker steps below and please check that the torch version matches your ROCm install. To install torch for a specific ROCm version, please refer to step 3 of wheels install in [Installing PyTorch for ROCm](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/install-on-linux/en/latest/how-to/3rd-party/pytorch-install.html#using-wheels-package) guide.
