    How do I set my NVIDIA graphics card as my system default?


    Recently, I've been having issues with game play performance and whether or not my games are using my dedicated GPU instead of my integrated GPU. I now believe most of my games are using my integrated GPU instead of my dedicated one.

    I want to set my NVIDIA GPU as the system default, but I'm unsure on how to do that. The only option I see people telling is 'go through NVIDIA control panel,' but that's simply not an option as the control panel does not give me the option to set my preferred GPU. You can see that here:

    Graphic card nvidia

    Hi Alingy

    By default if you have on-board graphics and a dedicated Graphics card, Windows will use the on-board graphics until you perform some intensive graphics task, at that point it should automatically switch over . .

    Things were better when Nividia allowed us to turn off the on-board graphics with Optimus, sadly that option is no longer available to us . .

    Open the Settings App (gear icon on your Start Menu)

    Go to System - Display - at the bottom, click Graphics Settings

    On that page, you can add to the list of apps that should just use the Nvidia graphics card . . .

    Hello Brian,

    I request you to try the following steps:

    Uninstall and Reinstall the Graphics Card Drivers.

    Step 1: Uninstall the Graphics Card
    Drivers


    • Right click on the Start menu.

    • Click on “Device Manager” from that list.

    • Search for the Graphics Card
      from the device list, right click on it and then select “Uninstall”. On the un-installation window, if you have an option: “Delete the driver software for this device” you may select that and then remove the corrupted drivers
      from the computer.

    • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete it and then restart the computer if prompted.
    After the restart, please go ahead with the next steps to install the latest drivers and check if that resolves the issue.

    Step 2: Go to the Computer or Graphics Card
    manufacturer’s website and search for the latest Windows 10 drivers available for the
    Graphics Card model and then install it by following the instructions given in the website.

    I hope this helps you. If you have any further query in future, feel free to contact us. We will be happy to help you.

    Thank you.
