Hello everybody.

I just purchased a brand new asus x550D laptop witch comes with two graphics cards; an integrated 8660g and a discrete 8670m.

I would like to be able to fine tune switchable graphics but there seems to be no control center option available. When I download the driver from amd's website they say that the driver is up to date and would not install it.

Is there any way to configure this?! I really don't understand why amdcc in not available.
My oss is windows 8.1, x64.

Thanks
 
Never mind.

Solved it myself.
Had to chose manually the catalyst driver on amd's site.
Apparently the automatic software downloader won't work for these situations
