I got this laptop for about a month, these days I got to install Win8_64 and update drivers.
Instead of the standard graphics card AMD FirePro M6100 diagnostic sw indicates Radeon HD8950.
How is this to be understood?
I'm interested in the context of efforts to get the maximum performance from this machine. I find it quite confising but when I buy a laptop with other components.
Besides that, I had no idea that there is a Intel HD4600 onboard. He is now active. How it goes off? I assume that both cards will not work once.
thx for any advice
Peter
