BC_Programmer:
Laptops with an Dedicated GPU and a integrated GPU will show both devices in Device Manager.

I gather it is, based on Geek-9pm's post.

Yea they will both show up in the Device Manager but not their specs...

Sorry for the double post but I could not modify the last one...
@ soybean
It is an acer Aspire E1 572G that has an Intel HD 4000 and ATI Radeon 8750 2GB ...and no, it is not for external monitors... I am only concerned with finding the secondary video card specs ....
@jason2074
I tried MSinfo32 which lists the two graphics card but it only shows 'Adapter RAM' which was correct but it does not show whether it is dedicated or shared...also, MSinfo32 does not list Memory bus bandwidth which is what I also want...
soybean:
From what I can gather from http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Acer-Aspire-E1-572G-54204G75Mnkk-Notebook.99958.0.html, you need change the active display adapter (graphics card). In other words, they do not run at the same time. So, I imagine the dxdiag tool will only report whichever graphics card/display adapter is running when you run dxdiag.
