I have recently purchased the XFX HD-577A-ZNFC Radeon HD 5770 (Juniper XT) 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card from newegg.com. On ati.com which brings you too http://sites.amd.com...on_win7-64.aspx once I put my specs in which are Desktop graphics,Radeon HD Series, Radeon 5xxx, Windows 7(64 bit). I get three to choose from that I know I need to download one of. Which one do I download ? AMD Catalyst 10.12 Preview for Windows 7– Featuring the new Catalyst Control Center or Catalyst Software Suite (64 bit) English Only or AMD Catalyst™ Accelerated Parallel Processing (APP) Technology Edition. I do know that of the 2nd and 3rd I posted, one has a OpenCL driver and other doesn't.

Which one do I download ?

Thnx, Snottz

The card should have come with a driver CD. You shouldn't need to download anything.

As recommended by everyone with video cards. You want the most recent updated drivers for video cards. The one from the cd is outdated by years when the card first came out. Usually the website, I'm just stuck on which one I need of the downloads they give me.
