Can't choose RX460 as Main GPU in Microsoft Flight Simulator X

I recently got my Asus X550IU, moving from old 2010's laptop and expecting to run FSX in ultra graphic with GDDR5 GPU, but in the end, I only can run it in very low (med-high traffic) with below 30 FPS, same as my old laptop. And I found it that I use R7 IGP instead of RX460, how to change this settings? I already set all the setting to maximum performance

Spec :
ASUS X550IU

FX9830P with R7 IGP

RX460M 4GB GDDR5

8GB DDR4 RAM

BIOS version X550IU.306 08/09/2017
OS : Windows 10 64 Bit

Thank you, looking forward to your answers

I already tried the same thing like this but the option for RX460 didn't show up, this is the same thing like when I tried to run R6 Siege, but when the game started, the RX460 GPU working by itself, but not for FSX.

Well, honestly, you gotta bit of a limping system there:

Your RX460 is listed as 2GB vram

Your CPU got only 2MB L2 cache which is 1/4 of that of an comparable AMD desktop cpu

Now look here to compare features under Specs:

AMD FX 8320 vs 7th Gen ™ 9830P

Seriously you gotta good office lappy there but that's it..
