Dedicated GPU no longer in use after recent Adrenalin Update

Hey there,

After the recent Adrenalin driver update (24.10.1), my game will no longer use the dedicated GPU. My monitor (ASUS ROG Strix XG249CM) is plugged into my motherboard (ASUS ROG Strix B650E-I) via USB-C DP. My CPU (AMD Ryzen 5 7600X) and my GPU (ASUS ROG Strix Radeon RX 6650 XT Dual OC) used to work well together. However, since the latest Adrenalin driver update, my GPU is no longer in use as long as my monitor is plugged into my motherboard. When I plug my monitor in via HDMI into my GPU, it works. But I'd like to use my USB-C DP connection, as I believe it provides a much sharper image.

I have set all relevant settings in both Windows and the Adrenalin software to performance mode, but there is still no change in behavior.

Do you have any advice on how I can fix this issue?

Thanks in advance,
X

The Ryzen 5 7600X has an IGP. When the monitor is connected to the motherboard the IGP will be primary.

To use the discrete 6650XT card as primary, connect the monitor directly to the card.
