Why doesnt Fusion 360 automatically detect my Grahics card

My installed and updated version of Fusion 360 does not detect my Graphics card,

The graphics diagnostics keeps listing  the intel 5500 hd graphics support; doesnt detect the AMD Radeon card. Intrestingly the Auto CAD 2016 version installed in the same system does detect the AMD CARD..

I even updated windows 10 with the latest updates..

 

Please help, i am including a screen capture ..

I don't have windows 10 so this might be different, find Fusion under All Programs then right click, there should be an option to choose which card is the default when you run the program. I'm not sure if the option on the right click menu or under properties.

Just found this info I put in another post.

 

If I right click the Fusion icon i get an option to pick which GPU. I haven't tried it, don't want to mess with something that's working.

Hi,

 

To get Fusion to run on AMD cards automatically, Fusion team needs to talk to AMD company to get their support to explicitly add Fusion appliation in its internal list. Otherwise it is up to Windows OS to determine which GPU to run on, depending on the GPU settings in the control panel. By default, the low battery mode will be preferred and that is why Intel card is selected. But you should be able to config it through GPU control panel to use the high performance mode. 

 

We have been trying to contact AMD to see if we can get Fusion 360 to be in the list just like AutoCAD.

 

Thanks
