For what? The build in HD graphics from the i5, or a dedicated GPU from AMD? what are you trying to do stuff for?

well i think its not worth the extra price if you havent bought the gpu

 

if you already have it, why not test it out yourself to find out?

 

also, be aware that a dgpu will be consuming more power, so efficiency wise, the intel igpu would be the wise choice

You're pretty salty. Calm down.

 

Check your PSU wattage. It should be written on the side sticker of your PSU. Make sure it can deliver at least 300W of power, since you barely mentioned anything about your system (I'm guessing your required wattage at this point). If you could give me the list of components on your PC, that would be helpful.

What "program" are you talking about? If you understood my post, there should be no "program".

Did what? I'm not understanding anything here.

Okay, so both of us are pretty confused here, so what I recommend you is uninstall any AMD driver, and run DDU to do the cleanup process.

http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

After you're done, boot up Windows, go to Windows update and check fro updates. If it finds any update (driver update), then let it install, and reboot if necessary.

You should be done now.

Here is ver. 8.97.100.7 standalone.

You might need to disable driver signature to run legacy software.
