    Hello mates Firstly I want to be excused for my bad English.Well the problem is that when I start GPU-z firstly there show type of memory ''GDDR3'' of radeon 7690m and I did not expect this because in site of HP [ http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/d...oduct=5226170]
    he say '''Video Graphics AMD Radeon HD 7690M Graphics with 1024MB GDDR5'''.

    the model of notebook is HP DV6 6c60br.

    after that I installed Aida64 and too show same thing GDDR3.but later i was go panel of control o catalyst see photos below:

    http://i1306.photobucket.com/albums/...daandgpu-z.png
    http://i1306.photobucket.com/albums/...mdcatalyst.png

    catalyst show be GDDR5.

    in the photos that you have been made ​​a little overclocked 600/800 up to 780/900.I was wondering if this is a bug or is normal.i installed last version of bios,installed last catalyst 11.8,Gpu-z is updated,aida64 too and is same thing ''GDDR3''.

    I do not feel pleasure of playing with a videocard of type GDDR3 because i paid for one GDDR5.i bought this notebook only because of graphics card be GDDR5 and really I'm disappointed.

    mates can help me?what's wrong and that to do
