hey chris - what happens when you load the amdgpu driver via rc.conf?  
does it load correctly, or does the system crash on boot? for example 
what does "dmesg | grep drm" look like?

assuming it does load successfully i think you are using the wrong xorg 
driver as the xf86-ati driver is ATI not amd devices.  Does loading 
xf86-video-amdgpu work better?

cheers,
