driver update

I have a dell inspiron 14 n4050.I downloaded drivers from dell official website from 'drivers and downloads' section.When i visited the same page after 4 months I noticed that there are no updated drivers for my model.But I know that at least graphics drivers should be updated on a regular basis for gaming purpose.

 I have AMD RADEON HD 7450M with switchable graphics.From amd.com i have known that only notebook manufacturers can provide drivers for switchable graphics,but Dell is not providing any updated driver.So,what the solution???please help............

    Hi arnab.734,

    The drivers are first released by the manufacturers, then Dell tests it on its systems and if everything is fine releases it on the support site.

    The drivers get updated but there is no fixed time for it. I request you to tell me if there are any issues while playing games so that I can help you further.

    Hi arnab.734,

    I request you to uninstall/Reinstall drivers by following the below steps:

    (1) Go to start type Programs and features in search box and hit enter.

    (2) Programs and feature screen appears, now double click on video drivers

    (3) Right click on AMD RADEON HD 7450M and Intel  and uninstall it

    Then use the below link and install AMD drivers:

        Thank u Mr. Kiran K for answering my question.

        Recently I have played and finished CODMW3(2011),it ran smoothly with high settings(Resolution-1366x768,AA-2x,High texture etc.).But when i tried Black Ops(2010),graphics sucked.I turned the graphics settings to lowest,but still I got freezing and fps drop during gameplay which is really annoying.

         My system has met minimum requirements of the game and also i have updated DirectX11  recently.I use Game Booster and an external cooling pad to increase game performance.so what the problem is?
