    Release notes for 12.6 show support for 5xxx and above.

    AMD Catalyst

    UPDATE: Looks like support for 2xxx, 3xxx, 4xxx will still be updated but on a quarterly basis. I assume it will be a separate download.

    brianzion I have the CCC shortcut too in the desktop context menu.

    Although when I first start the computer I see a black border around the desktop for about 2 mins until CCC fully starts and my settings for overscan start working.

    for the 6870, the GUI is borked by the 12.7 (26th June) BETA (see above)
    ..tried to fix it via CCC - but, so far, haven't found a solution..
