Hey Keith, I just wanted to say thank you for the video. I purchased the Crossblade motherboard with the A10-7850K APU. I already owned an XFX 7770 Black Edition, but everywhere I read, I was told it was NOT compatible for dual-graphics. Well, after making the BIOS changes that you outlined in the video, I'm happy to report that my dual graphics are now enabled and working just fine!

+Keith “jackalopeater” I just finished running two 3DMARK 11 benchmarks. One with just my XFX enabled, and one with dual graphics enabled. There's very little improvement with dual graphics enabled. Single graphics score was 3968, and dual graphics was 3990. Definitely expected to see a little better boost, but something is better than nothing I guess.

+Roberto Taylor as far as i know, dual graphics will work with pretty much any other AMD graphics card. But the problem is that the they have to be at the same level, meaning that your dedicated graphics card has to downgrade itself to match the onboard one. that is the reason that people recommend using the same GC for onboard and dedicated, cuz otherwise it is cheaper to use a normal CPU and a dedicated GC. So it's not like it doesn't work, it's just not efficient.

Everyone doing these "tutorials" always forget the most important lesson, sadly. For dual graphics to work properly with an APU you MUST set the DDR3 system RAM above 1833Mhz (A10 7XXX, A8 7XXX). If below this speed it may not even register and there will be no option for dual graphics. If you are using an APU, you are wasting your money and its resources if you use anything less than 1833mhz RAM anyway. I find the sweet spot to be 2133mhz for most builds. Remember the GPUs run at the speed of the lowest clocks. So if using DDR3 on your discrete graphics card try to overclock the VRAM to match that of your system. On my LAN party IPX build my DDR3 RAM is clocked at 2600mhz. On my R7 250 the VRAM is set to 1300mhz (which is 2600MHz dual channel), and my GPU clock is 1050mhz which matches the iGPU clock on my over clocked A10 7870k. These numbers are extreme but I was lucky to get quality chips. These settings give me a constant above 40fps using proper settings @1080p in games like BF4 etc.

+Jayson Fernandez use PGE so it shoud be on the gpu. and the dual graphics mode will only work on gpu. if you put connection on the board it is hybrid and amd doest support the hybrid it is already phaseout. check the apu gpu compatibility of your A6 thru amd's website. memory should be 1866 and 21+ ddr3 above model. also check the version of your catalyst.
