Specs:

CPU: Intel Core i3 3217U

GPUs:-AMD R5 M240

          - Intel HD Graphics 4000

RAM: 4gb of ram ddr3 1600(I will upgrade to 8 sometime this week).

maybe instead of getting 4GB of extra RAM, buy a cheap used GPU (like 750Ti)

 

..oh wait.

Disable DGPU in device manager?

yeah that world work, although it's a lot of work every time you start a game.

 

Not sure if there is any way to do it on a game-by-game basis

Assuming this is Windows, most games will use what is considered the "primary monitor" for its output, which uses whatever GPU is connected to it.

 

So switch the primary monitor, assuming it's attached to the other GPU.
