Good day. The performance of a video card is highly dependent on the drivers used. Very often, developers make driver fixes that can slightly improve the performance of the card, especially for new games.

The picture in the game (or in the video) freezes, it may start to twitch, slow down (especially if the system requirements the game should work fine);

Changing the color of some elements. For example, I once did not display fire on the Radeon 9600 card (more precisely, it was not bright orange or red - instead it was a faded light orange color). After the update - the colors played with new colors !;

Some games and applications crash with video driver errors (like "no response was received from the video driver ...").

And so, let's get started ...

1) How to find out the model of your video card?

Before downloading and installing / updating drivers, you need to know the exact model of the video card. Let's look at several ways to do this.

Method number 1

The easiest option is to pick up the documents and papers that came with the PC when purchasing. In 99% of cases, these documents will include all the characteristics of your computer, including the model of the video card. Often, especially on laptops, there are stickers with the specified model.

Method number 2

Use some special utility to determine the characteristics of your computer (link to an article about such programs:). To me personally, in recent times most of all I like hwinfo.

Pros: there is a portable version (no need to install); free; shows all the main characteristics; there are versions for all Windows operating systems, including 32 and 64 bit; no need to configure, etc. - just start and after 10 seconds. you will know everything about your graphics card!

For example, on my laptop, this utility produced the following:

Video card - AMD Radeon HD 6650M.

Method number 3

I don't really like this method, and it is suitable for those who update the driver (and do not reinstall it). In Windows 7/8, you first need to go to the control panel.

Then in Device Manager, open the "video adapters" tab - it should display your video card. See screenshot below.

And so, now knowing the model of the card, you can start looking for a driver for it.

2) Driver update for AMD graphics card (Radeon)

The first thing to do is to go to the manufacturer's official website, to the drivers section - http://support.amd.com/ru-ru/download

Then there are several options for action: you can manually set the parameters and find the driver, or you can use the auto-search (for this, you will need to download a small utility on your PC). Personally, I recommend installing it manually (more reliable).

Selecting AMD Driver Manually ...

Then, in the menu, specify the main parameters (consider the parameters from the screenshot below):

Notebook Graphics (a video card from a laptop. If you have a regular computer, specify Desktop Graphics);

Radeon HD Series (the series of your video card is indicated here, you can find out from its name. For example, if the model is AMD Radeon HD 6650M, then its series is HD);

Windows 7 64 bits (your Windows OS is specified).

Actually: it remains to download and install them. With this, usually no further problems arise ...

3) Updating the driver for the Nvidia video card

Official site for downloading drivers for Nvidia graphics cards - http://www.nvidia.ru/Download/index.aspx?lang=ru

Take video for example GeForce card GTX 770 (not the newest, but it will work to show you how to find a driver).

Product type: GeForce graphics card;

Product series: GeForce 700 Series (the series follows from the name of the GeForce GTX 770 card);

Product family: specify your GeForce GTX 770 card;

Operating system: just specify your OS (many drivers go automatically immediately to Windows 7 and 8).

4) Automatic driver search and update in Windows 7/8

In some cases, it is possible to update the driver for a video card even without using any utilities - directly from Windows (by at least now it comes about Windows 7/8)!

1. First you need to go to device Manager- you can open it from the OS control panel by going to the section system and safety.

3. Then you need to select a search option: automatic (Windows will search for drivers on the Internet and on your PC) and manual (you will need to specify the folder with the drivers located).

Windows has determined that the drivers for this device do not need to be updated.

5) Special. driver search utilities

In this article, I will present one that I use myself to find the most latest updates drivers - Slim Drivers. She searches so well that after scanning her - there is nothing more to update in the system!

Although, of course, the category of such programs should be treated with a certain degree of caution - before updating the drivers, make a backup copy of the OS (and if something goes wrong, roll back; by the way, the program creates backup points for system recovery automatically).

Official website of the program: http://www.driverupdate.net/

By the way, when you update all drivers, you can make a backup copy of all drivers right in Slim Drivers. They may be needed if you have to reinstall Windows in the future, or if you suddenly unsuccessfully update some drivers, and you need to roll back the system. Thanks to backup- well, you will need to look for drivers, spend time on this - the program can simply and easily restore them from a prepared backup.

That's all, happy update everyone ...

Well, hello, Human. Here you can always find and download a driver for AMD Radeon video cards, as well as drivers for earlier models of video cards released under the ATI Radeon trademark. Here you can also realize your desire to download drivers for the Radeon Mobility video card (Notebook Drivers), and let's not forget about the drivers for the integrated graphics of the A-Series processors.

To achieve the result, you only need to know the series of your video card, as well as the version operating system Windows XP / Vista / 7/8 or Linux, with appropriate bit depth (32-bit or 64-bit). It is these factors that influence the choice of a driver for Radeon graphics cards - AMD Catalyst. For those who are confused, do not know how to find out both, I will show you a little below, and you are guaranteed to receive your fresh drivers for AMD Radeon video cards.

How to download drivers for video cards Radeon Desktop and AMD Mobility Radeon.
Let's start from scratch, well, not everyone should understand the PC at 100%, someone should also build cities .... As I said earlier, video card drivers require clarification of the video card series, plus a little information about the operating system of your computer or laptop. There is nothing terrible in this, the task is not difficult and within the power of any person who has learned to use a mouse.

In the lower left corner of the monitor screen is the Start button - click. In the "find programs and files" or "run" field, insert the command - dxdiag - this will allow us to open the DirectX diagnostic tool. The "System" tab will give all the necessary information about the operating system, the "Display" or "Screen" tab will point to the name ATI video cards or AMD Radeon HD.

Note that the first digit after HD defines the series of the video card and the corresponding driver version (HD 4xxx Series, HD 5xxx, HD 6xxx Series, etc.). For example, if you need drivers for a Radeon HD 6670 or 5470 video card in the information block to the driver, we find HD 6000 for 6670 or HD 5000 for 5470 - this indicates that all the lineup video cards (from 6450 to 6990).

You can find out the necessary information and select the appropriate driver for AMD Radeon video cards using a small, free and very informative program HWiNFO. With its help you will get the most detailed information about all the components of your computer or laptop.

In order to determine the choice and pay attention to number 2 - we get the exact name models and 6 - version of the operating system plus x64 or x32 (x86). Each item of the HWiNFO program has advanced capabilities with full monitoring of PC components (manufacturer, model, frequency, temperature, power consumption, etc.). Recommend for use - download HWiNFO-32-64bit .

For Windows 7 owners, I also recommend downloading AMD Catalyst Un-install Utility - the utility will remove all accumulated garbage from previous versions drivers and prepare the system for clean install new edition AMD drivers for video cards Radeon. Download AMD Catalyst Un-install Utility .

That's actually the whole science, all the necessary data has been collected, there is little left to do, from the list of drivers presented below - choose your own. Click on the corresponding button, the file is downloaded from the official AMD server - there is nothing to worry about.

Remember to run Catalyst Un-install Utility, reboot, and then update your Radeon graphics driver. Owners of others Windows versions removing unnecessary and cleaning the PC will help - I advise you to choose the AusLogics BoostSpeed ​​program.

Owners of laptops with AMD Radeon graphics cards are recommended to initially download the Mobility Driver Verification Tool, run the version corresponding to the bitness of your OS. After checking the compatibility, downloading and installing the most recent, stable drivers for GPUs AMD.

The failure of the AMD server will only indicate that to implement the operation of all products and technologies in your laptop, you need specialized video card drivers, which can be updated only on the manufacturer's website. I advise you to choose and visit the website of the laptop manufacturer, where by specifying the model, you can make a comprehensive driver update for all components of your model.

Sooner or later, any software needs to be updated. A video card is a component, which in particular depends on the manufacturer's support. New software versions make this device more stable, customizable and powerful. If the user has no experience in upgrading the software of PC components, such a task as installing current version the driver can be tricky. In this article, we will look at the options for installing it for AMD Radeon video cards.

Each owner of a video card can install one of two types of driver: full package software and basic. In the first case, he will receive a utility with basic and advanced settings, and in the second - only the ability to set any screen resolution. Both options allow you to comfortably use a computer, play games, watch high-definition video.

Before moving on to the main topic, I would like to make two comments:


Method 1: Update via the installed utility

As a rule, many users have proprietary software from AMD, where the fine tuning component. If you don't have it, skip to the following way... All other users just need to run the utility or and update. More details about this process through each of the programs are written in our separate articles. There you will find all the information you need to get the latest version.

Method 2: Official site of the program

The correct choice would be to use the official AMD Internet resource, where the drivers for all software released by this corporation are located. Here the user can find the latest software version for any video card and save it to his PC.

This option is suitable for those users who have not yet installed any of the utilities corresponding to their video card. However, if you have problems downloading drivers through the Catalyst Control Center or Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition, this method is also suitable for you.

A detailed guide on downloading and installing the required software has been reviewed by us in other articles. You will find links to them just above, in "Method 1". There you can also read about the subsequent manual update procedure. The only difference is that you need to know the model of the video card, otherwise you will not be able to download the correct version. If you suddenly forgot or do not know at all what is installed in your PC / laptop, read the article that will tell you how to easily identify the product model.

Method 3: Third Party Software

If you plan to update drivers for different components and peripherals, it is more convenient to automate this process using special software. Such applications scan the computer and give a list of the software that needs updating or initial installation. Accordingly, you can perform both full and selective driver updates, for example, only the video card or some other components at your discretion. The list of such programs is a topic for a separate article, the link to which is just below.

If you decide to choose from this list either, we advise you to familiarize yourself with the instructions for working in each of these programs.

Method 4: Device ID

A video card or any other device that is a physical separate component of a computer has a unique code. Each model has its own, thanks to which the system knows that you have connected to the PC, for example, AMD Radeon HD 6850, and not HD 6930. ID is displayed in "Device Manager", namely in the properties of the graphics adapter.

Using it, through special online services with driver databases, you can download the desired one and install it manually. This method is suitable for users who need to update to a specific software version due to possible incompatibilities between the utility and the operating system. It should be noted that on such sites latest versions programs do not appear immediately, but there are full list previous revisions.

When downloading files in this way, it is important to correctly identify the ID and use a secure online service so that during installation you do not infect Windows with viruses that attackers often add to drivers. For people unfamiliar with this method of searching for software, we have prepared a separate instruction.

Method 5: Windows standard tools

The operating system is able to install the minimum driver version that allows you to work with the connected video card. In this case, you will not have an additional proprietary application from AMD (Catalyst Control Center / Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition), but the graphics adapter itself is involved, it will allow you to set the maximum screen resolution available to your own configuration and will be able to be determined by games, programs with 3D and Windows itself.

This method is the choice of the most unassuming users who do not want to perform manual setting and improve the performance of the device. In fact, this method does not need to be updated: it is enough to install the driver on the GPU once and forget about it before reinstalling the OS.

All actions are again performed through "Device Manager", and what exactly needs to be done to update, read in a separate manual.

We looked at 5 universal options for updating the AMD Radeon graphics card driver. We recommend that you perform this procedure in a timely manner together with the exit. fresh versions ON. Developers not only add new features to their own utilities, but also increase the stability of interaction between the video adapter and the operating system, fixing "crashes" from applications, BSODs and other unpleasant errors.
