I want to grab the latest driver etc for my RX 580. The downloads page shows 3 things: AMD "Official" driver, AMD software and Utility. The "Official thingy is a small ~50 MB "minimal setup", the next one about 475MB and the utility I understand is OC-related. So, Do I need to get both the "official and the "software" thingy? What's what?

Personally I always go with the minimal set up because I don't like all that crap bloatware since you can just use afterburner for any overclocking but that's just me

If you get the official 400 MB one you just have to download it by itself. Additionally the others are just the same you just download one of them

I think the top one is a beta

Always get graphics drivers direct from AMD, NVIDIA, or Intel. If you're running Windows 10, it will eventually get it for you.

I can vouch for this when I had driver issues Win10 got me a working driver, I just had to update from there.

Well, I guess I"ll just get the driver and utility then. Thank you all for the help. But the thing is, I still haven't received the card :p The seller received a wrong consignment of "Pulse 580" with the boxes labelled Nitro+. Gonna take a few more days to get the right stuff. I'm just getting ready so I can use it as soon I get it.
