What's its saying under POWER Switchable graphics

I've been using this to test to see if it matters if I go to power save or high performance during games and it doesn't seem to make a difference.

You need to add in your minecraft (java.exe) and the exe of any other game you play in that list to make sure you get the high performance chipset.

Just so you know, even if you have your games running under high performance won't necessarily mean they run great.  Even dedicated laptop graphics can still be pretty crummy.

I already tried that, I put Minecraft in and it still slows down and crashes, same with a couple other games, surely my 6470 could run Minecraft really well.
