For those on AMD systems (FX or APU or etc) there also looks to be new chipset drivers under the 'Optional Downloads' tab.

Yes they do work, AMD has changed their Driver Signatures so now it will work with the upcoming Anniversary update releasing on Aug 2nd. I'm glad they did this before people screamed and tried to figure out why they are having driver issues. I hope they will update their WHQL ones as the installer also has the old driver signatures that will cause it to fail out with a Driver Detection error asi I know some people will only use the WHQL drivers and avoid Beta Drivers.

If you are updating your Chipset Drivers that are released with this with the latest Windows 10 Anniversary update
, you will also get the Driver Detection error, just replace the file atdcm64a.sys from the 16.7.3 Drivers and place it in your Bin folder and replace the older signature file.

Tried it, nothing updated in ages. Looks to be only for APUs.

Strange driver in some(dx11)games results are worse than ever end in some better than ever. I'm kinda ok with that since I don't play that often, but all games profiles settings are gone, again...
