My lenovo has a dedicated gpu(960m) as well as an integrated intel graphics processor. I have gone into the nvidia control panel to make the 960m my primary graphics source, but no matter what I do, it always opens with the integrated graphics. I am able to right click and open with the card, but I dont think I should have to. Any Ideas?

 

Thanks

If you go into the nvidia control panel and goto the 3D settings tab and click program settings you can select the program and change its settings to "use high end Nvidia GPU" or something.

 

Hope this helps :P

 

P.S just reply to me if you are confused about something :P.

Disable the integrated graphics in the BIOS? Or do you still want to be able to interchange between the two?

Sometimes the BIOS doesn't let you disable it. Lol i hate Optimus laptops. All my friends have them and i have to Teamviewer them to fix their "low FPS" xD
