2015 should be fine. The card should have been still support that year.
Alternatively, some manufacturers keep drivers for their hardware for longer than others. One of them are Gigabyte:

ASUS is another:

Here I found drivers back to 2013: https://www.driverscape.com/download/amd-radeon-hd-6850
Here there is a huge collection of older drivers: https://www.techspot.com/drivers/manufacturer/amd/5/
He asked oldest drivers and one of the oldest for it seems 10.10e, but download link is dead by now.
