I have just got hold of a new Lenovo Thinkpad E560 laptop.

I know this machine is pre-installed with an AMD R7 M370 graphics card, also it has the Intel HD on board graphics.

The AMD driver installed is 15.201.1101.0.

What I do not understand is how to access the display settings for the card, the graphics options from the desktop seem to be for the On board graphics only.

I previously had a laptop with switchable graphics, but am not sure how they work on this one. Do I need to download an additional driver or will the AMD drivers just kick in certain software (games)?

I would much appreciate any help.
 
I have picked up the same laptop, I installed a SSD with fresh OS (Windows 10). I remember installing two graphics drivers, one for the Intel the other AMD. When I have time I will install the latest MAD Catalyst suite, hopefully it will detect my chip and also provide Catalyst control centre which is where the settings will be.
 
Ahh - so you think I have to download the catalyst suite ? so as it stands if I boot a game will it still use the AMD card or the Intel one ?
