So, I have an AMD R7 M260 GPU with 2GB VRAM, while my integrated GPU is AMD R5 with 1GB VRAM.
My CPU is AMD APU A8-6410 2GHz, and I have 8GB RAM.
How do I make GTA V to use my R7 GPU instead of R5?
GTA V only uses 1024mb of VRAM, but I got 2048mb of VRAM on my R7....

I can't find an option to disable it in BIOS, but when I disable it in Device Manager, I can't use Aero themes and stuff

download gpu-z and select the R7 gpu, go to the sensors tab and check if the gpu is used while running the game windowed mode or a benchmark like unigine heaven.If not then you did something wrong with the drivers.

I have an HP laptop, I got the driver from their site.
I checked if I installed the right one, I installed the right one.
I had GTA:V before with this same driver, and the game worked fine
