Hey i was wondering if anyone knew where i could see what the update did. I am not to concerned about it but some people say they throw out faulty drivers. I would just like to review the update. Nvidia cards always seemed a wee bit more user friendly when it came to doing this.

You should always read the "release notes" on the download page before updating. These notes may also be included as a text file with the driver download.

Go here, click on driver version, then click "Release Notes" highlighted in orange: http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/previous?os=Windows%207%20-%2032

You shouldn't update any driver anyway unless you're having issues with your existing version. Updating just because you don't have the latest version is not recommended. Always have a better reason than that for updating.
