Hello,
I'm having a problem with AMD gpu not being detected by some games. The whole problem is, when i install adrenalin software (18.6.1), and after I open device manager, on the display driver tab it says i have AMD R7 M440, while I own a R7 M445. If i update the driver from device manager, it goes to m445, but the software goes back to 17.7 if i remember correctly. Then i try to update the software to 18.6.1, and the GPU goes back to m440 on the display driver in device manager.

I'm using Windows 10 Home 64bit, i5-7200 @ 2.5GHz , 4GB RAM, and the above mentioned AMD R7 M445.
Any suggestions are welcomed. Thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply,

I'm currently downloading the 18.5.1 and see if it helps by detecting the right driver.
Although I got my GPU to be detected in-game by changing power options. What struggles me is that the driver should be R7 M445 which is noted in my configuration ( I have Dell Inspiron 15 5567 ), but Windows and Radeon Software both recognize it as R7 M440.
OS version is 10.0.17134 Build 17134.

Edit: Having the GPU running well, and reading this discussion it seems that the correct driver is installed just labeled differently, so it can be ignored.
