860M Render only device?

I just think that the Intel one is the primary GPU due to Nvidia Optimus during idle, meaning the nvidia one outputs nothing when you're not playing a game or something that requires alot of GPU-horsepower.

 

Optimus is a powersaving feature that disables your dedicated GPU in order to save power and uses the intergrated one instead.

 

Hope I have been of some help and good luck :D
