Why won't CPUZ recognize my GFX card?

I have installed, part of my new rig, XFX 6950 with 2GB (so finally BF3 plays w/o crashing :-) ).
CPUZ was identifying my previous cards (Gigabyte) perfectly, but for some reason the current 6950 is being identified as 6900 (and not specifically 6950) with -2GB (that's minus :-) ).
Any idea?

you sure thats just not the driver for the card? my graphics card driver is named differently to the graphics card i have in my pc but its the right driver for my card.

installed recent AMD drivers, not anything unique.

CPU-z isnt properly updated to support 6900 cards

Found there is a GPUZ which gives much more info, although still shows it as 6900; wonder if I could flash it to 6970...
