Supported configurations are limited and they don't add too much performance-wise.
The OP APU (67xx generation) works only with HD 6570 or HD 6670, but not with the R7 GPU generation...
Only the newer 76xx, 77xx, 78xx series APU (with R7 integrated graphics) work in dual graphics with an external R7 GPU.
using different models and even different manufacturers(AMD & Nvidia) will be available with DX12 developed software but it has to be implemented by the game or the program itself, not just a default Windows option.
you are just trying to Crossfire 2 totally different model AMD cards which is impossible.
You guys so realize hes asking for Dual Graphics, not Crossfire right?
The 6790k is an APU, with the integrated 8570HD and a discrete r7 240, which by all means should be possible.
the only option i got with a laptop using AMD APU + discrete GPU was to choose which GPU you'd rather use for certain programs.
it didn't take any certain version of Catalyst. just whatever latest package was available at the time those few years ago.
download the latest Crimson package from AMD and if the option you're looking for isn't available you may have a problem.
Its a desktop APU, you can enable dual graphics to act similar to Xfire.
i did have an option similar to that ~10 years ago. believe it was with an athlon and the motherboard had a separate removable graphics memory chip that would allow tandem graphics with certain dedicated GPUs. didn't offer any noticeable improvement in game's frame rates at the time and when the chip was activated it used like 256MB of system RAM. didn't go over well i imagine because i never saw it again.
is the new "dual graphics" option reported to work well with decent powered APU & GPU?
