    Guys, Im having a weird Problem
    I can't seem to see my actual Graphic Card name with the latest Update from the 14.6 RC2 Update (The one which fixed my Switchable Graphics! In the Forum,God Bless him)
    When i installed the Default AMD Drivers from HP Support, it gave me the name of the "6750m" - Dedicated Graphics Card BUT after installing the 14.6 RC2 that changed to "6600m and 6700m Series"
    it shows as GDDR3, But on Notebookcheck Claims that its GDDR5,
    If its isn't the 6750m, Then, What is the actual Graphics Card?
    I checked even on the CCC and says the Secondary Adapter as 6600m and 6700m Series BUT, SAYS GDDR5!
    So i want to know the Actual Name of the Graphics Card and a way to change its name from 6600m and 6700m to *The Actual GPU Name* in Device Manager/GPU-Z/CCC

    Using AMDs drivers vs your laptop vendor, AMD generalized the series if there is no functional differences in the sub-models.

    for example:

    R9-290 Series for 290 and 290x
    HD 7900 Series for 7950 and 7970
    HD 6900 Series for 6950 and 6970

    Changing the name will make no difference to how it functions.
