Which drivers do I download?

Go to solution Solved by MrTomnus,

AMD ones, they are more likely to be up to date but they should be the same.

 

 

Straight from AMD's website

 

 

yep, what they said. AMD will update their drivers more regularly.

 

Okey dokey, thank you guys for the answer! :)

First of all I apologise if this is a stupid question, but this is for my first build that I built about two weeks ago.

 

The R9 280X I ordered should arrive in the next few days (at long last, I ordered the damn thing on the 22nd of January). I would just like to know which drivers I should install for it - the one from Gigabyte on their website, or the AMD ones? Or both??

 

Thank you in advance :)
