Hello everyone !

I have a problem with Crossfire....
My laptop's processor is a APU and has got a dedicated HD 7520G
It has another working GPU, the HD 7670M B)
I want to disable Crossfire because it is known to be the cause of the incredibly annoying micro-stuttering and bad framerates, but I want to use only the HD 7670M because HD 7520G is worse.
If I disable Crossfire, only the HD 7520G will be used.... :blink:

Does anybody know how to disable the HD 7520G and use the 7670M ??

Thanks for your replies ! :D

Hi and welcome to the forums. You may be able to disable it in device manager or the BiOS and or set the default to the HD7670M.

What I did was going to the Catalyst Control Center and set the application I chose to use the High Performance parameter, that's all :rolleyes:
