I was wondering why the dual graphic option in my ccc isn't showing up.
I tried many options and other people's solutions but still it doesn't work.
and the ccc said my integrated graphic is disabled when i already force enable it in bios.

So I was wondering if the dual graphic only works if there's atleast 8gb ram in the system?

Or is it because my video Bios of the integrated and discrete graphics is not the same?

APU : AMD A8-7650K
Mobo : Biostar Hi-Fi A70U3P
GPU : Sapphire AMD R7 250 1GB DDR5
RAM : Crucial 4GB DDR3

in your motherboard manuel page 29
"4.5 AMD DUAL Graphics Technology AMD Dual Graphics Technology Introduction When user adds a AMD PCIe display adapter, it can be integrated with IGD to show better performance. To make the two video devices work simultaneously and normally, please refer to the following setting. AMD Dual Graphics Requirement  Dual Graphics only supports with dual channel memory configuration"

so if your not running in duel channel memory config it will not work so are you using two 2gb sticks of ram or just one single 4gb stick??

if you pass that requirement u then have to configure your bios as follows "AMD Dual Graphics Setup Step 1: Insert Dual Graphics-Ready graphics card into PEX16_1 slot. Step 2: Set the...
Tom's did a review of dual graphics a while back and concluded that, due to frame pacing issues, it's usually worse than using the discrete GPU alone anyway. Crossfire has many issues, and Crossfiring two very different GPUs is just that much worse.

I ment Dual Channel Ram.

Dual graphics Goes other way... you need two Compatible and capable of SLI graphics card to make SLI. For ex: 2 Gtx 1080. The same goes for CrossfireX

Anyway as they mentioned upside the mobo presents some issues with multi Gpu usage... You better stay like this or if you wanna upgrade get another better single GPU...
