Blender 2.8 doesn't detect radeon 530 for Cycles GPU compute #69168

System Information
Operating system: widows 10 PRO
Graphics card: Radeon 530 (GCN 3rd gen), Intel 620

Blender Version
Broken: 2.8

Short description of error
Seems that blender is not detecting the GPUs on the computer and not allowing to select it for cycles rendering.
Surprisingly, the system info created by blender (attached) detects the GPUs, and in the Cycles section, seems to detect the intel GPU, but not the Radeon 530.
I also attach an image showing that blender doesn't allow to select any GPU, the devices manager and the AMD driver software that shows that blender is running using the GPU. Because of the latter it doesn't seem to me to be a dual GPU problem.
I also tried to use blender 2.81 alpha, but no luck.

@JordiMM you have a very old GPU driver for that Radeon. The latest is 26.20.13025.1004. Your version is 23.20.808.2816.

This is not a Blender bug.

@onedev is right. I installed the latest driver and everything runs fine.

Thanks and sorry for the inconveniences.
