[HELP] I want to use my nVidia as PRIMARY GRAPHICS CARD

I have a newly bought acer E 15 laptop with i5-8th gen 4GB RAM DDR3L Intel UHD 620 and a dedicated nVidia MX150 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card. I wan't to use nVidia as my PRIMARY GRAPGICS CARD.





All I can see here is Intel UHD 620 as my Primary Graphics Card. Is there anyway to make nVidia as my Primary? Instead nVidia is only sitting and waiting for some apps to be run so it will be used too.

What I have already done:

• Disabled Intel but it only made my screen resolution lower.
• Updated nVidia and no success.
• Opened nVidia control panel and chose nVidia MX150 as PhyX processor also set my Global settings to nVidia HIGH PERFORMANCE under '3D Settings' but still doesn't work.
• Uninstalled nVidia drivers fully and re-installed an updated driver still no success.

I want to make nVidia as primary because as I said earlier, not all the times it works, in some cases, Intel handles the graphics and makes the application crappy.

 

Select Primary Graphics Adapter

Hi Michail, try the steps below, depending on the make of your graphics card

For nVIdia graphics cards:

Open the Nvidia Control Panel. You can do this by right-clicking on the desktop or you can find the option within the notification area of the Taskbar.

Select Manage 3D Settings under 3D Settings.

Click on the Program Settings tab and select the program you want to choose a graphics card for from the drop down list.

Select the 'preferred graphics processor' in the drop down list (you can see what the automatic option is listed as global setting). If you want to use the dedicated graphics card, select High-performance Nvidia processor

For ATI/AMD graphics cards the process varies.

Open the control center in the same way as above.

You may need to open graphics then PowerPlay and set plugged in and/or battery to maximize performance. You can also try going to graphics then 3D and move the slider to performance. Your computer may also have a switchable graphics tab where you can change
the settings for individual programs.

You use NVIDIA Optimus?

Nvidia Optimus - Wikipedia

DO NOT disable the Intel APU as it's needed for the nvidia processor to be fully utilized on a Optimus enabled laptop. DO NOT update the graphics drivers from Nvidia on Optimus laptops, instead get your drivers directly from Acer - in your case - as they provide compatibility specifically for your laptop. Using the nVidia GPU as your primary graphics device should work by simply opening up the nvidia controlpanel and choose "nVidia" in the drop-down menu under "manage 3D settings" for the preferred graphics proccesor.

1. Right Click on your desktop, and choose NVIDIA Control Panel.
2. Click Manage 3D Settings.
3. Click the Program Settings tab.
4. Choose your desired program from the list. If your program is not in the list, uncheck the box Show only programs found on this computer.
5. Choose the processor you want to use from the dropdown menu in step number 2.
6. Select High-performance NVIDIA processor from the list.
7. Click Apply.
