right click on your desktop, select configure switchable graphics, select your game and set it to run on high performance.

It should change automatically. If it isn't it may be in a power saving mode. I would check that as well as make sure the card is being detected in Device Manager. If it is in device manager make sure you check for any driver updates.
 
The biggest problem with the dual graphics systems is switching. Newer games sometimes don't activate the switch to the discrete GPU. The best thing to do is to go to Samsungs support site and check for updates for your graphics drivers.

Unfortunately you can't use drivers directly from Intel and AMD since they wont have the information to use the switching capabilities.
