To use AMDVLK as default vulkan Driver you have to

export VK_ICD_FILENAMES="/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/amd_icd64.json" 

To use lib32-AMDVLK as default vulkan Driver you have to

export VK_ICD_FILENAMES="/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/amd_icd32.json" 

The driver exposes many settings that can customize the driver's behavior and facilitate debugging. You can add/edit settings in amdPalSettings.cfg file under one of below paths, formatted with one name,value pair per line:

• $HOME/.config

This amdPalSettings.cfg got all functions from AMDVLK github page, but only activates "cache to disk" what is recommended for gaming.
