What software is my graphics card supposed to use?

[themalebeyonce]

I have a MSI RX RAEDON 580 8GB graphics card. I am for sure it is MSI, even the manual was MSI, but it makes me use AMD Adrenaline or other NVidia drivers, but i can not find any MSI drivers. Do I just use the currently installed AMD drivers or is there something by MSI I am missing.

It's an AMD card, so it will use AMD drivers.

Yeah, AMD/Nvidia make the actual graphics processor chip. Companies like MSI, Gigabyte, Asus, AsRock, Sapphire, EVGA, etc etc put the chip on the card with all the other electrical bits. None of those things are smart enough to require their own drivers.

Thanks, it makes a lot more sense now.
