Solidworks wont use gpu

Hello, I have  laptop with an nvidia GTX 1650 and I have tried changing the nvidia driver settings to force my laptop to use the GTX 1650 on all programs and manually tried changing the gpu for solidworks but no matter what solidworks uses the intel igpu. does anyone have any suggestions on how to force it to use the GTX 1650?

Doesn't Solidworks require a workstation GPU and/or certificate drivers? https://www.solidworks.com/support/hardware-certification

It works with regular GPUs too, just realview is disabled and you need to do a registry edit to enable that feature.
