AMD Catalyst Driver Version, and Driver History
- AMD Catalyst 12.10

Operating System

Issue Details

- i newly installed the AMD A8 with the Radeon HD 6570

- in BIOS i only set the shared memory size for the onboard graphics card to Auto

- After installing the newest Catalyst driver i enabled dual graphics under Performance -> AMD Dual Graphics

- when starting the game The Secret World i get a low framerate (20-40 fps with low settings) and graphic errors and glitches like blinking textures or black polygons across the screen

- the graphics driver also crashes after a few minutes of playing (especially in high populated places)

- when disabling dual graphics i get much better results with only the HD 6570 (the monitor was plugged into the HD 6570 via DVI-cable in both cases)

- are dual graphics simply not supported by some applications or what can i try in order to get dual graphics to work properly?
