https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/radeon-500-series/radeon-rx-500-series/radeon-rx-570 You should be able to download this one, it was just released today.

 

You can do it this way, or right click anywhere on your desktop and open Radeon Settings, you can perform the driver updates right in the Radeon Settings application as well.

You SHOULD NOT be using the drivers included in the DVD anyways.

Get the latest drivers directly from the AMD website.

https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/radeon-500-series/radeon-rx-500-series/radeon-rx-570

 

Once the download finishes, it should just be an .EXE file.

Do you have anything installed on your computer that would block files / programs from running?

 

Make sure your Windows is up-to-date.

If it's too old (e.g. Windows 10 1803 or something like that), the newer drivers won't be compatible. 

AMD even mentions this somewhat...

What?

 

Those *ARE* the drivers that he linked to -- The application (.EXE) are the drivers.

Choose the correct Windows OS that you have, and click to download.

 

Install the RX-570 into your computer.

You need to download said drivers, and run it to install the drivers onto your computer.
