I'm pretty sure they replaced what we knew as CCC with "Radeon additional settings" which is just a few tweaks to the display and audio. The main settings are now called Radeon Settings. There is no CCC anymore basically. The whole entire driver and software suite gets replaced when you do this upgrade. Just do it from inside CCC and let it upgrade itself. That it what I did on my R9 290 PC and it is working just fine.

Yes, 15.30.1025 is Crimson. No need to make it complicated. Just do it from CCC if you want to take the easiest route. You don't have to uninstall the old driver. The only time I would do that is if you are switching to an Nvidia GPU. You could also just DL the driver directly from AMD's site but if you do it from within CCC, it will select the correct driver (R9 or R7, etc.) the correct OS (Windows, Linux, 64-bit or 32-bit, etc.). It is essentially doing the same thing in the end.
