    I have been away from my desktop for a very long time and i realize i need to update drivers for my win 7 pc as i just got a new dell 2717hx monitor. the driver is listed as from 2012 ( lots of things have reset back to original values on the pc)

    i am more interested in stability than speed.

    thank you

    17.6.1 is ok for my 7970.

    I would honestly recommend an upgrade to Windows 10 and using the latest driver from AMD (currently 17.6.1).

    thank you - i have no desire to use win 10. i have it on my laptop and do not like it.

    I see that the 17.6.1 just came out. are you sure they are stable.
