Cross fire AMD Radeon HD 7660d with 6670

[Reykan]

What's the exact process to crossfire an integrated amd radeon hd 7660d graphic card with an amd radeon hd 6670? I bought an A10 5700 pc that includes the integrated gpu, and i bought a xfx 6670 with 2gb dedicated memory, i want to crossfire them and ive seen many people who has done it. My pc model is a hp pavilion 500-037cb. Thank you.

You should be able to just install your 6670 into the first PCIe slot on your motherboard, then download AMD's drivers from their website (unless you already have them, I've never used an APU, I'd assume you might already have them installed) and change Crossfire mode to Hybrid Crossfire in the CCC.

thanks a lot man that's really helping me out, i still have a few problems though, AMD website says i can turn on crossfire mode on my AMD VISION control center in Performance tab, but i can't see that option there, the only thing there are clock controls, do you think i installed the wrong driver? or my its cause im runninb on windows 8?

Yeah it should be there, is the card installed? I would uninstall all your drivers then reinstall the latest ones just to be sure, here's the link just in case: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/radeonaiw_win8-64.aspx

From there you should be able to enable CF in the Catalyst Control Center

Start from the beginning with a fresh install of your drivers with both GPUs installed and enabled in the BIOS.

You cannot Crossfire a 6000 series card with a 7000 series card.

AMD says i can plus i've seen videos in youtube of games running with the same setup im trying to run, but still some people tell em i can't, i dont know who's right..

I suggest you re-read the original post.

It's exactly the same version i'm runnign and it still doesnt show. My computer is currently running with my discrete card (AMD Radeon HD 6670), maybe i have to run it with the integrated one?, if that's so i wouldnt know how to change the GPU.

I read somewhere else that someone had the same problem and the solution was to "enable it in the bios." I would suggest opening your bios and looking for an option to enable dual graphics or something. (I don't know what that would be or where to find it unfortunately)

That was it! thanks a lot everything is working now, thanks everyone for helping.

In order to get the dual graphics option to show up in your AMD menu, you have to enable dual graphics in the BIOS. The trouble with the HP pavilion motherboards is that some of them disable the APU when you install a dedicated graphics card, so you might want to check that out. I just built a desktop with this same combo and turned out that I got better graphics using just the graphics card instead of the dual graphics, might be because the memory on my graphics cards was DDR5. Anyways, good luck.
