Having and RX 5700 XT and 2080Ti in one System, how can I choose in windows which card is used?

So I recently bought an AMD GPU so I can use my computer as a hackintosh, which isn't possible with an nvidia GPU. Normaly I would say okay then just sell the Nvidia GPU, but... it is an 2080Ti so lol no. My problem is that I can't switch between both GPUs on Windows, just in one game actually. But all the rest of the games choose on their own which GPU they use. My question is: Is there an option or a setting where I can choose between those 2 GPUs?

 

My system in general is:

MSI z390 Gaming Pro Carbon

i9-9900k

4x g.skill 3600Mhz CL16 16Gb

2080Ti (MSI Gaming X)

AMD RX 5700 XT

WD-Black 500gb

 

I would be happy if anyone could help me and leaves a reply ;)

What ever you plug the display in is the GPU that will be used 

You can plug a display to both of them and each one will do a different thing separately.

PC: Motherboard: ASUS B550M TUF-Plus, CPU: Ryzen 3 3100, CPU Cooler: Arctic Freezer 34, GPU: GIGABYTE WindForce GTX1650S, RAM: HyperX Fury RGB 2x8GB 3200 CL16, Case, CoolerMaster MB311L ARGB, Boot Drive: 250GB MX500, Game Drive: WD Blue 1TB 7200RPM HDD.

 

Peripherals: GK61 (Optical Gateron Red) with Mistel White/Orange keycaps, Logitech G102 (Purple), BitWit Ensemble Grey Deskpad. 

 

Audio: Logitech G432, Moondrop Starfield, Mic: Razer Siren Mini (White).

 

Phone: Pixel 3a (Purple-ish).

Monitors plugged in to the 2080Ti wont work for macOS :D sadly, and it is kind of weird plugging your monitor everytime, you'll boot in to a different system. Sooo basically it's a comfort question. Whats the best way without plugging your monitors in and out everytime :P. I'm looking for something like this (screenshot in attachments) but just for your whole system or for specific games. Thats just working in World Of Warcraft... different games like GTA V The Crew (2) or Battlefield don't have an option like that one.1983740628_Wowgpu.PNG.4e28d7a46fdf5ed22ad2b00bdc9840a8.PNG

@Tirami First of all, bro what the f**k xD. And, what about the Radeon settings/Nvidia control panel? Don't they allow to chose which GPU to work for different titles? OR follow the above guys, I really don't have much experience with dedicated GPUs since I own a 2200G, but I've a vague idea because I own a laptop with Geforce 410M and intel integrated.. so.. yeah

 

Look into the Nvidia control panel/Radeon settings to choose which GPU to use for different titles.

Hope I was a little helpful :)

Windows soll man eine Wahl zwischen unterschiedliche GPUs geben, höffentlich wird es einer von der zwei (z.B. 5700XT) als Power Saving nennen, und dann der anderer als High Performance nennen (z.B. 2080ti)

Everybody who replies is helpfull :D But the Control panels obviously just go with their own GPU xD so there isn't an option which allows you to choose between those 2 GPUs ;)

Thx anyways :o

Schon probiert, leider ist der einzige GPU der da gelistet ist nur die Radeon 5700 XT (komischerweise :D) Danke trotzdem.

Already tried that option, but it just lets me choose between the Radeon 5700 XT and ... well the Radeon 5700 XT soo that doesn't work :)

AKA:

THIS is a whole different story than a Notebooks integrated GPU and another dedecated GPU, because both of them would be dedecated GPUs in this example :D

Entschuldigung, wahrscheinlich will es Sie nur die 5700XT nutzen... Sie sollen versuchen zu finden, wenn es eine Method, der integrierte GPU zu nutzen also können die 5700XT und 2080ti ein Bild durchzulaufen?

 

Sorry, perhaps it only wants you to use the 5700XT... you should try and find out if there is a method to use the integrated GPU to pass through an image from either the 5700XT or 2080ti

It is possible to get an image from the RX 5700 to the iGPU (UHD graphics) but not from the 2080Ti. The only thing that might would work is swapping the PCIe slot from both GPUs (lanes are the same but Windows is weird so...) I turned the iGPU on in the BIOS to test this. (As before only one game works with all 3 GPUs :D, so basically it is possible but there isn't an option for the overall system) Windows locks itself to one main GPU (RX 5700 xt).

If I turn the Intel UHD Graphics off, it just says "AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT" for Both options.

Ah right. How about if you switch off the iGPU again and then plug in separate monitors to both GPUs, that seems like the only solution I can think of to be honest. Or try using Nvidia Control Panel and Radeon Settings to set options for certain games, it could potentially override the other GPU if one has your custom settings for a game and the other doesn't have any (or has been specifically selected to not use the discrete GPU)?
