What graphics drivers would I need and how to get them?

Previously I was using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and just used the AMDGPU Pro drivers fro Ubuntu. I wanted to try Arch out and managed to get it installed, but I don't know what to do with the graphics drivers situation.

My graphics card:
AMD/ATI Oland XT [Radeon HD 8670 / R7 250/350]

Welcome to the arch linux forums systemunknown.  You do not specify what task you want the right drivers for.
Related to the card you referenced [1] indicates it is southern islands [2] covers how to enable support for that card for the amdgpu module and what will be used if support is not enabled.
