  • So you have integrated Intel HD graphics on your i5, and a dedicated AMD GPU as well. It's normal to have a driver for each, and it's normal on a laptop to use the integrated graphics except for apps that really need something with more grunt (and for which you don't mind using some more power, especially if you're on battery).
