skyrim detecting NVIDIA instead of AMD

hey and sorry for making multiple threads (2nd thread in 2 days) but each solved problem makes another problem

after alot of research and testing about my skyrim using the wrong GPU i decided to make a clean reinstall of my drivers using AMD detect utility this time instead of normally finding my drivers on Toshiba's site
the installation finished properly and so i launched skyrim with the launcher that redetected my system configuration and set it directly to ultra high quality (wich surprised me since my GPU is not that great) i looked to the GPU being used and i found "NVIDIA Geforce 8800 GS"
i looked in skyrimprefs.ini and found

sD3DDevice="NVIDIA Geforce 8800 GS"

I don't have an NVIDIA i have an AMD Radeon R9 M265X

should i just ignore it or do I need to do something?

and it doesn't seems like the fps improved but it became even less now its around 17fps while it used to be around 40 with higher ini configuration

edit: by "used to be" i don't mean before this "clean reinstallation" but before these problems appeared. Before reinstalling the driver it was around 20fps
