You could use the autodetect feature available

seems a bit weird to have two different gpu´s in one laptop.. but to be sure use the autodetect feature as seumasbeathan already said!

Sometimes laptops have dual graphics for power efficiency. One for every day use, browsing, etc. and one for higher intensity stuff like gaming.

yup they do indeed, try using the auto dectect feature ont eh AMD/ATI website, and failing that does the manual say anything about it?

the auto detect will probably fail on firefox / chrome etc as it uses activ-x so internet exploder is the best bet.

also i'm willing to be that the cpu onboard is an apu hence the second graphics controller, but i also assume that the latest catalyst drivers will do all the work for you

It seems weirder to me that neither are really power savers? They're both good performing cards for laptops - according to 3d mark 11 scores.

Just curious as to the other specs of the laptop?

My dual graphics is the intel 3000 built into the i7, then an nvidia 540m and both of yours apparently beat the 540m. Seems like a good laptop? Model? and price?
