How do you enable AMD Smart Access Video?

Smart Access Memory is enabled.

It says Radeon 6000 or higher so i am good there, but i cannot turn it on in adrenaline, says unsupported.

Is there a BIOS setting i have to change or something?

Appears it requires a pre-built (OEM) "Advantage" branded laptop or system, and/or registration with AMD for developer enablement. See footnotes:

I think it requires an iGPU as well.

The Hell?

 

That makes no sense.

My PC is all AMD
Except the labor and choice of parts combined.

I don't need some other idiot assembling my PC

 

Why even advertise features, and then say Nope you can't have, cause we didn't turn the screwdriver?

 

Finding this out now is a blessing honestly, will no longer purchase anything with an AMD logo on it, at least they didn't just hide the marketing scandal I guess.

it not make sense,  since it's not true but you do need a IGPU on your CPU you do need to have it enable so any am5 cpu work can't say if am4 work but if you do have a 5000G cpu you are welcome to try . only software i can find that work with this technology is Davinci resolve for now if you do find some other you are welcome to tell me for me to try it out.

this is inaccurate I build my system with part from all over and i have it enable you do need a AM5 CPU with integrated graphic and 7000 GPU and your IGPU need to be enable on BIOS. 

 

my system is a 7900xtx reddevil asus x670e hero MOBO and 7950x3D CPU  

WRONG!

 

The requirements are a Ryzen CPU (with integrated Radeon graphics) and a discrete Radeon GPU 6000 series or higher.  The iGPU must be set to activate in BIOS.  With both GPUs active, Smart Access Video becomes available. For the rest of the features, I'm pretty sure those are for laptops with AMD CPU/GPU.Active!Active!

Thanks for confirming that the SmartAccess Video feature is available without the purchase of a pre-built "Advantage" branded system. The AMD documentation on this topic is unclear, and to be honest somewhat deceiving.

Can you provide further clarification as to type of integrated Radeon graphics needed to support SmartAccess Video? Is there a particular processor series (5000, 8000, etc.) or integrated graphics family (Vega, Navi, etc.) limitation, or will any Radeon integrated graphics work?
