Hybrid CrossFireX on a Laptop

[genekellyjr]

Hello!

Is it possible to turn both of my laptop's graphics card/chip on at the same time?
It is a Power Xpress setup that switches between each graphics processor. A little more oomph never hurts.

I was reading this article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATI_Hybrid_Graphics and it mentioned the Power Xpress in the same "hybrid" family.
Is there a way to enable both through the CCC?

No. Hybrid crossfire only works with select combinations of IGPs and discreet GPUs. In the case of your GPU you can only do hybrid crossfire with older cards that have 40 shaders, giving you a total of 80 and making it preform like a low end 4550. In other words, not worth it. The new Llano laptops have a similar capability, but seems they are still working out the kinks.
