How to check for latest Radeon driver ... circular Adrenalin info?
I recently went AMD ... I built an AMD CPU system with a Radeon RX 9070 XT.
With my previous build, Intel CPU and nVidia GPU, it was easy and clear to tell whether I had the latest GPU driver, and to update it. Their software readily showed all the dates and versions involved and had a big place saying whether you're up to date (plus had a "check for updates" button).
But with AMD, everything seems to go through Adrenalin, even though Adrenalin is not the GPU driver.
For example, the Adrenalin System tab says whether it (Adrenalin) is up to date, with the version and date. But then has a *separate* place listing GPU driver info - which does not say the date of the latest driver or specify whether the GPU driver is up to date. Hmm.
If I go to the AMD site to try to find GPU driver info (to independently check the date of my driver, since it's not shown in Adrenalin), the AMD page does NOT list the driver version ... and then lists the Adrenalin version and date. (Oddly it lists a date of 3/19/26 for the latest Adrenalin v. 26.3.1, but when I load Adrenalin, it says the version is 26.3.1 dated 3/9/26 - ten days earlier.)
So ... I'm not sure what's going on here.
Am I just supposed to take for granted that if Adrenalin itself says it's up to date, then that means my GPU driver is also up to date?
It would be nice if the Adrenalin software actually specifically said the date of the GPU driver, and whether it was up to date.
Am I missing something?
Thanks if you can help.
