Windows 10: Games not using EGPU

Before disabling I've noticed that windows makes the pc use less GPU 7 - 10% before eventually reaching numbers like 30%. Also sometimes the EGPU isn't being used by some specific games and I'm forced to restart my laptop for it to use the EGPU. And sometimes the game literally runs slowly on the background when I switch tabs which I don't likeAfter disablingWhen I disable the GPU, some games wouldn't even use the EGPU. That specific reason forces me to re-enable the GPU so I can run games using the RTX 3060 Ti. Most things also run slower because they're not using the EGPU at all and I do

[GTX 760] - eGPU over Thunderbolt 2 - Issues

With the shear number of companies backing the idea and AMD stepping in to make a standard I would say you are wrong.

 

Blurry/Fuzzy Fonts & Systemicons with eGPU and Windows 10


Hi,

What are my components:

Laptop:

• Razer Blade Stealth (Late 2017) - see https://www.razerzone.com/Gaming-Sys...-01964E32-R3U1

eGPU:

• ​Mantiz MZ-02 - see https://mymantiz.com/products/mz-02-venus
• NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti (Driver 390.65)
• Another SSD

External Monitors:

• LG W2361VV (DisplayPort => HDMI)
• GERICOM GM2600 (HDMI => HMDI)

What IS working:

• I'm using both Monitors with my eGPU, the GTX 1080 and Thunderbolt 3.
• Both Monitors are working with the recommended resolution and 59/60 Hz

Problem (only with the two external displays):
The recommended Scale Factor for the internal monitor is 250%, for the two external 100%.

• Most of the fonts and system-icons are blurry and fuzzy.
• On the other side, the fontsize of the nvidia control panel is like it is ALWAYS scaled 250% (even on the external monitors)
• The fonts of older programs (like Putty) are now completly blurred

The only way to fix it is to switch to a scalefactor of 125% , but the texts are now REALLY big and for example in Chrome I have to downscale them to 80% for smooth reading.
The other fonts are still a little bit blurred. For example the text in the PUTTY-Terminal is shown differently. For example the left vertical line of the "0" is a bolt, white line with 1px width, the right vertical line is a fuzzy white line with 2px width.

I already calibrated both monitors with the Windows 10 "ClearType". As I said, it's a little bit better, but nevertheless my eyes are hurting ;-)

By the way I used both monitors with a Surface Pro 3 Dock for about 2-3 years without such issues.

Maybe somebody has a good hint what I can do now :-(
Maybe it's because of the high difference between the Razer internal display (3k resolution) to the HD-displays (1080p)?

[EDIT] The Background Images on both displays are really beautifull and clear pictures, so it seems it should not be a hardware issue

 

getting an egpu

can I get an egpu for my Lenovo yoga 900? The card needs to have at least 1540 MB VRAM, could anyone give a rough estimation of the cost altogether?
