I've noticed very slow gaming performance on my laptop, running fairly low end games on minimal settings which the laptop meets the requirements for. I suspect this is due the dual graphics not working

I downloaded GPU-z to see how my graphics is performing (Radeon HD 6520G + 7670M) however the GPU load for the 6520G seems to be a constant 70-100% and the frame rate suffers majorly to about 15-20fps on the lowest graphic settings. What concerns me in the GPU load for the 7670M registers at a constant 0% indicating to me that only the nowhere near as powerful 6520G is solely being used.

I went into AMD vision engine control center to check if the dual graphics setting was being used and it is applied.

Anybody know what could be causing this issue? Thanks.

Well, dual graphics is not known because it works alright. It sometimes works OK, sometimes lowers performance.

Now, i don't know if the HD 6520G can be paired with the HD 7670M to work in dual graphics.

What is the exact model of your laptop?
