[SOLVED]Radeon RX 6600 is showing as AMD RADV DIMGREY_CAVEFISH

As the title says, i have recently switched over from a 1050ti, removing nvidia, lib32-nvidia-utils, nvidia-utils and deleting xorg.conf along with it. After i finished replacing the card i installed mesa, lib32-mesa, vulkan-radeon and lib32-vulkan-radeon. The graphics card works fine and when i run neofetch it is recognized as the rx 6600, but it gets shown as "AMD RADV DIMGREY_CAVEFISH" in every game i have played so far, i am not sure what is causing this minor issue, but i'd like to fix it, thanks in advance!

That's the name for Navi23 (like the 6600) in the Linux Kernel. I have an RX 580, gets shown as polaris10.
