Using AMD Graphics Effectively (optional)

PowerXpress is Switchable Graphics technology that selectively enables either the internal or external graphics chipset depending on the program to extend the battery life time while maintaining the graphics performance.

This technology uses the internal graphics by default to reduce battery consumption and switches to the external graphics when the user uses some program functions that require a high graphics performance such as games and playing videos.

•• This description is only for Windows 8 and models with AMD PowerXpress technology.

Right-click on the Desktop and select Configure Switchable Graphics from the popup menu.

Click the Browse button and register the software and click the Apply button.
