Hello most of the laptops it is possible to switch the GPU to select the GPU, only with me some options are not accepted because the IGPU, my Intel HD 630, has the upper hand so some functions Not to load or through load but that's only as far as I'm knows since the update 400 from nvidia
You have to change them in the Nvidia settings
When I set IGPU there, for example, it ignores the when I set Nvidia Also when I set IGPU the nvidia is used
If I set the game and the basic settings to Nvidia or Intel, we ignored it for whatever reason
These are dual graphics in laptops, on the one hand to save energy, for a longer battery life and on the other hand to provide enough power if necessary. The whole thing only works with the graphics drivers provided by the notebook manufacturer. Because here the drivers have to be specially adapted so that the IGP driver works together with the GPU drivers or they communicate with each other. If you install a pure GPU driver from nVidia, communication between the drivers will be terminated and the switching of the graphics units will no longer work. Reinstall the drivers from the laptop manufacturer and it should work again, even if they are not the latest drivers. This is the case with OEM devices. Depends on the OEM and has no free choice. However, it is no different with laptops, because they are always OEM devices and you are dependent on the OEM.
I did nothing either
What exactly does the Igpu do with a multi GPU
Did you also uninstall the currently installed graphics drivers and the associated software for nVidia and intel? If not, do that and then install the drivers from the laptop manufacturer. Otherwise I can't think of anything to do with it at first.
The graphics unit (IGP) integrated in the processor is used when there are no high demands placed on the image generation, e.g. In desktop mode. This saves energy and extends the battery life. If an application is started that requires the appropriate graphics power, e.g. A corresponding game is then automatically switched to the "stronger" graphics chip (GPU). Dual graphics for laptops was developed for this purpose.
Yes only if you have, for example, games that are not very advanced, for example, 2d games or games like Minecraft etc. Then the GPU is hardly worth the use and with my laptop the IGPU has sometimes more load sometimes less with each game, why that is but only on the main monitor of the laptop so at the side monitor and not
Yes, I have the drivers from Phys X Ansel Shawdowplay and Nvidia Experiments
