In October 1986, the magazine updated it's cover logo and in May 1987 [[Amtix]]! was [http://cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:AMTIX_Welcome.png rolled into the magazine], as evidenced by the Incorporating Amtix! logo on the front cover for the next 16 issues (until August 1988).

May 1987's issue contained essentially the first edition of [http://cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:CWTAPCWMag.jpg Computing with the Amstrad PCW] which then in June 1987 split off to form its own separate magazine (also by Database Publications) - hence why CWTA had [http://cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:CWTA_magazine_changes.jpg CPC added to the end of it's name to become CWTA CPC]. All Amstrad PC content was also spun off to form a new magazine called [http://cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:PersonalComputingWithTheAmstrad.jpg Personal Computing with the Amstrad]. So from June onwards it was back to being purely a CPC magazine.

In September 1988, the magazine title became the shorter name "CPC Computing" (the top left corner of the magazine said 'The new name for Computing with the Amstrad CPC') and underwent a slight makeover. All Amtix! & Amtips references vanished but essentially it was the same magazine. It ran for 4 issues before being 'merged' into [[Amstrad Computer User]] in January 1989. This was evident, by ACU [http://cpcwiki.eu/index.php/File:ACU_Welcome.png welcoming its new readers] and having the 'with CPC Computing' logo on the cover of the magazine for the next 6 issue before disappearing in July 1989 as part of a magazine overhaul.
