One of the UK Amstrad magazines for the CPC, issued monthly from January 1985 (Vol 1, No 1) to December 1988 (Vol 4, No 12).

There has also been a Computing With The Amstrad - Australian Edition which ran from August 1986 until December 1987.

In October 1986, the magazine updated it's cover logo and in May 1987 Amtix! was rolled into the magazine, as evidenced by the Incorporating Amtix! logo on the front cover for the next 16 issues (until August 1988).

In June 1987 the magazine became known as Computing with the Amstrad CPC (as there was a magazine produced called Computing with the Amstrad PCW - also by Database Publications) - so the magazine only contained CPC content, no longer CPC and PCW content.

In September 1988, it became known as CPC Computing and ran for 4 issues before being 'merged' into Amstrad Computer User. This was evident, by ACU having the 'with CPC Computing' logo on the cover of the magazine for 6 issue beginning in January 1989 - before disappearing in July 1989 as part of a magazine overhaul.
