Hello @kendier, Steam is accurately telling you that it is running on the intel chipset. This is not a bug.

You should be able to run steam with DRI_PRIME=1 steam from a terminal to run steam on the AMD gpu, or have individual games run on it by adding DRI_PRIME=1 %command% to the game's launch options.

Outside of steam, you can test this env variable with DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo -B.
