Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

The specification sheet indicates an integrated Intel® UHD Graphics 630 and an AMD Radeon™ RX 550 Graphics (2 GB GDDR5 dedicated) on this PC.

 

 

Will the machine decide which graphics card to use, integrated for Word, web browsing etc. and then switch to dedicate AMD  graphics if I start playing Steam - Train Simulator 2018?

@Graham31 The kind of set up you are referring to, only works on laptops with switchable graphics, when it comes to desktops, such as the one you possess, the integrated graphics card is disabled when an external card is attached to the device, which means only the AMD Radeon™ RX 550 Graphics (2 GB GDDR5 dedicated) is active.

 

I hope that answers your query,
