What to do with older gpu

[MAGP]

Hi everyone i am actually clueless about what to do with my current graphics card.

Last year i bought a Powercolor R5 230 1gb

https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131616

I was using it for basic stuff and then i bought a gtx 1050 which is far superior.

Although; i wanted to give it a use on an older machine.  And i havent been able to find the damn driver anywhere.

Powercolor doesnt seem to have the driver and i asked them if they could send me a link or something but they never answered back.  I tried several times  but they never do anything.  I asked newegg and they told me to ask powercolor so i ended up in the same place.

I tried the catalyst amd driver but it is not compatible with this particular card.  The funny thing is that newegg and powercolor continue to sell this card but no driver?

What can i do?

Just use AMD AutoDetect, it works well enough.

PowerColor has really really bad customer service, they never responded to my RMA email too. Fuck that

 

Have you looked up AMD's site? http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/legacy?product=legacy3&os=Windows+10+-+64

Try DriverScape. I use it when I cant find a driver and aslong as you dont choose Driver Utillity

Or do you still have the driver cd?
