    How to I change which GPU Windows sets as "High Performance" and "Power Saving"?


    I have two discrete GPU's, an Intel Arc and a NVIDIA 3080Ti. Windows is always setting the Intel Arc as the High Performance option in Graphics settings even though the NVIDIA 3080Ti is by far the higher performing GPU. Problem is if I let Windows choose which GPU to use it will choose the "High Performance" GPU for games which is set to Intel Arc so my games are all super slow and don't work even though I have all my monitors connected to the NVIDIA Card.There doesn't seem to be any way to choose which discrete GPU is set for High Performance, Being able to swap them would resolve my issue.

  2. High Performance Power Settings

    Hi,

    Somehow I have completely lost the "High Performance" setting in Control Panel > Power. As now I totally need to rebuild this (believe me, this needs redoing), can anyone please supply a list of all exact settings in "Change Advanced Power Settings".

    Thank you,

    DC

  3. having issues with multi GPU

    I’m trying to offload certain apps to my iGPU on the second screen, using the new graphics settings in the recent win 10 release. the issue is it’s only showing my 1070. lists it as both power saving GPU, and
    high performance GPU.

    I’ve been fiddling for a while now with no joy, and i’m really hoping one of you guys has an idea they can suggest to sort this!

    I can extend onto the second screen no probs with it plugged into the iGPU, but the 1070 is still listed as both power saving GPU and high performance GPU.

    Are there requirements for this? certain level of iGPU for it to work?

    Thanks

    Edit - setting the secondary screen connected to the iGPU to be the "main" display in graphics settings makes my iGPU show as both power saving and high performance GPU, I just can't seem to get them
    to be one and not the other.
