Vortex III Drivers

Hi all,

I believe I got a Vortex 3. i7 Sandybridge ATI 7970 GPU. Built back in April 2013.

I'm looking for drivers as I'm swapping back to Windows 7. The performance hit upgrading to 10 just wasn't worth it, and overtime it's just got slower and slower.

Does anyone have a link to the drivers by any chance?

Nevermind. I found the model on the sticker underneath. Turns out its a Clevo P170em

Goodbye Windows 10. You won't be missed. At least, not on my laptop. My desktop runs it without issue but the laptop is just dead slow.

A word to the wise, anyone considering getting a hybrid drive; don't. They're painfully slow.

I was gonna say, it's not Windows 10 that's slow, it's the hybrid drive that's the bottleneck. Get yourself an ssd as the OS disc and then a wd black for data, it'll run sweet on that rig.
