Radeon HD 7690M Review

Radeon HD 7690M, codenamed 'Thames XTX', is a fast-mid-range GPU part of the Mobility HD 7000M Series released by AMD in 2012.
It's still based on the Southern Islands architecture and therefore a renamed Radeon HD 6750M. A DDR3 version, codenamed "Thames XT" is also manufactured.
The performance should be enough to run Very Demanding games (e.g. Metro 2033, Max Payne 3) on medium settings while less Demanding games (e.g. Crysis, Skyrim V) will probably run at high settings fluently.

Hey, a bit of a problem here.
I tried running this with my current specs (2.2GHz i7, this GPU) but after a while, Black Ops 1 freezes. After -10s or so, it recovers, and if I alt-tab fast enough I can see the error "GPU has stopped responding and has recovered" etcetc.
I tried updating but now my GPU is detected as 6600M/6700M series. Help please?

black ops 1 not working with Hp drivers and AMD drivers detect your graphics card as 6600m/6700m series. Just play with AMD drivers because some games not works with HP drivers Example OpenGL games and some other example black ops 1:)
