    This system ships both with and without   the discrete video option.  If your system arrived from Dell with a Windows install that did not have the AMD Control panel on it, you have Intel-only video.  If you bought the system elsewhere, ask the vendor -- they may not have properly installed Windows.

    You can find the system details at support.dell.com (use the service tag to look up the original configuration).

    Hi RagingSnail7,

    “ejn63” has mentioned correctly that the computer will have “ATI Catalyst Control” application if it has an ATI card. If you need further clarification you can check the “Device Manager” to identify the graphics card in your machine.

    To check the graphics options in the “Device Manager”:

    1. Press “Windows + R” key on the keyboard.
    2. Type “devmgmt.msc” and hit “Enter”.
    3. Expand Display adapter.
    4. Display Adapters will be listed here, the Intel adapter will also be listed as it is a part of the system board. It should look like the image below:





    Please reply if you have any further queries.
