Hey guys,
I was hoping to locate some help on here as always. I just bought a MSI Radeon RX 480 Armor Edition to upgrade my current graphics card. I know I could have purchased better, but it was one sale and one of the fans for my previous graphic card was not working properly. Therefore, this will give me a chance to fix it and install it in another build later.
Already began to ramble... anyway I am trying to install the correct drivers on my system and sort of new to this stuff. I am looking at the Direct X Diagnostic Tool right now and for Main Driver it says: C:\WINDOWS\System32\DriverStore
This sounds like a default Microsoft driver to me, and was told that I do not want that. I was told that I wanted the software directly from the manufacturer which I already downloaded from the website. I used DDU to uninstall previous AMD Radeon drivers and rebooted the computer beforehand.
Basically, I just want to make certain that my computer is utilizing the driver that is developed to work along with my new graphics card. The one that comes from the manufacturer and not the Microsoft generic crap.
