Are you using a Laptop or Desktop ?

If you are using desktop. Connect your VGA Cable from monitor to your amd card .

I have a similar solution with nvidia in my laptop, and there is an option where i right click the program and get the option 'Run with graphical processor' and there i can select which videocard to use, maybe you have that option too?

I understand, the option should be there before you launch the game, eg. right click the shortcur for the game and see if you have the option to run it using a specific videocard.
