    Hello.

    My computer is a Dell Inspiron 5548, Core i7 2,4GHz, 8GB, 1T, AMD Radeon R7 M260.

    I bought the game this afternoon, and the game don't run with the my GPU Radeon.

    When the game start, it show me a message: "Performance Warning: You are using an Intel GPU, please choose a different one to improve performance"


    I already try everything, also, running the game by the Radeon Software Panel and it doesen't work.
    What can i do for run the game with my GPU Radeon?
    I really wanna enjoy the game, and with the Intel GPU i can play because of the lag.

    Many thanks from Brazil.

    do this. to all 3 executables of beamng. so it should always chose your gpu.

    i'm using the default installation path of beamng drive on the c drive

    video might be crap rn but it's stil converting or whatever yt calls it

    delete the beamng folder in your documents this wil delete all your mods and settings but this should fix gridmapp.. then use f11 to mod the terain. after doing so do f11 again to exit and ctrl r to reload the car for good measure

    Is your computer a desktop? If so, you can replace the graphics card. If not, just don't play the game because 2.4 GHz and 8 GB RAM probably won't get you anywhere

    It's a laptop. The best solution isn't to just not play, that CPU is perfectly capable of above 30FPS gameplay with a single car, maybe two. Just because it doesn't fit your standards doesn't mean it isn't worth it, I played with an old ass AMD laptop CPU at 20FPS and still loved the game.

    Ahem - I have only 2.8 Ghz and 8GB RAM and the game works fine. What he needs to do is contact support and ask what he needs to do to get it to recognize his graphics card. If this fails and it is a computer issue, he should then contact Dell.

    2.4ghz is what I have, and I can achieve 60fps medium settings on WCUSA, 16gb of ram would get you better FPS, but the game is perfectly playable at that state. Please refrain from saying that you should not play the game with a 2.4ghz CPU as it is perfectly playable.

    the problem he is having is driver related.. amd driver is supposed to assign apps to the dedicated gpu whenever needed. beamng drive not being "that" well known. it doesnt always have that profile in the driver.. the method i showed fixed my issue aswel

    I would agree to you, and I do, but they have 8GB of RAM and maybe less because they are using Windows 10

    I’ve played with 8gb ram and it’s playable, I recommend upgrading to 16gb but 8gb is playable and smooth.

    I meant 70fps high settings on WCUSA

    Does that mean anything? He probably set his GPU to the iGPU.
