How to activate my other graphic card ?

moking01 · Feb 5, 2016

Hello guys,
I've got a Sony Vio VPCCA15FA laptop and what i found that it runs my games on the Intel(R) 3000series gpu which is pretty poor.
According the the device manager i can see that i do have another AMD Radeon 6600M and 6700M series.

Is there any possibilities of getting the intel card disabled and have the other enabled ?

most times with two gpu bases laptop it a setting in the bios. most times you have to set the power mode to performance mode. if not in device manager click on disable on the intel video chipset.

First of all you need to install the latest amd drivers....
When your laptop is using the intel gpu it saves power but under load the second gpu should be activated automatically

Can i force a specific game to run on that AMD ?

moking01 :

My Surface Book has the Intel integrared GP and a Nvidia DGP. The Nvidia Control Panel allows me to do thinks like your asking. I can set to use the Nvidia all the time, The Intel all the time or let the system decide the best choice. Also I can set each application which card to use individually. So I would look at the AMD/ATI app that allows you to change the graphics setings.
