    How do I find out if my laptop is using my GPU's graphics or my integrated graphics


    I might have explained it in a bad way in the title, but I heard that you can use your CPUs integrated graphics, and I want to find out if my laptop is using those integrated graphics from the CPU or the GPU. I'm using Windows 11

    Direct System Processes to Integrated Graphics to keep dedicated GPU free?

    I have a Geforce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU with Radeon Integrated graphics on my laptop with 32 Gbs of Ram. My question is if I can allocate system processes (Windows Defender, Mobile device service, basically just programs needed for my PC to run) to my Integrated Graphics (my Radeon Graphics) and keep my main GPU (My RTX 3060 Laptop) free for any games or heavy tasks on my PC. Is there a way to do this or am I stupid to ask this question?

    To whom it may concern,

    I have recently installed a dedicated graphics card in my Windows system, and in order to use 3 monitors, I had to force the integrated graphics processor on in the BIOS. Is there a way to switch the order that Windows detects the GPUs? In TSKMGR, it reports
    that the Intel HD Graphics 530 is GPU 0 and the nVidia GeForce GT 730 is GPU 1, and showing that only the 530 processor is being used for OpenGL,CL and DirectX. I want the nVidia GPU to b e GPU0 and the Intel HD 530 to be GPU1. Is this possible?

    Thank you!

    -Mike
