Link at the top will lead you to the release notes with the links to the actual driver at the bottom. If I try to link directly to the driver it will just kick out errors.

OpenCL STILL seems to be missing form the 32bit version. I checked the windows 10 package.

WHY is this not listed in known issues? This has been a long running thing and no one seems to care.

To add insult to injury, by looking at the file naming it seems that the 64bit driver still needs to support things in the 32bit space and 32bit openCL seems to be in the 64bit driver package.
