  1. How to increase Nvidia dedicated GPU dual gpu


    Hi, I use a Lenovo laptop that has 2 GPU Intel UHD and Nvidia MX130Intel UHD has 4gb total vram, however Nvidia graphics card is divided 2GB for dedicated VRAM and 3.9GB for shared VRAMAll computer processes utilize the intel graphics card only. And gaming uses only 2GB VRAM from Nvidia card. So the 3.9GB shared is sitting idle...Any idea how to increase the dedicated VRAM for Nvidia...I've seen other posts but none works,,,Thanks...

    :)

  2. Can't use dedicated GPU for dual monitor setup

    I have a DELL Precision 5520 notebook with an integrated Intel(R) HD Graphics 530 GPU and a dedicated Nvidia Quadro M1200 GPU and I have two screens through a DELL WD19S docking station, both screens connected via display port. I'm trying to force my Windows to use the dedicated GPU for everything, including the windows desktop environment cause it looks like the integrated GPU can't handle more than 1080p but my dedicated GPU can go with even 4k when I'm playing games. My problem is that no matter what I try, Windows won't use my dedicated GPU for the desktop environment, only for games. Here's what I've tried so far:



    1. Updating windows

    2. Updating all drivers with DELL support assist

    3. Updating both GPU drivers from the manufacturers' websites

    4. Installing a previous vesrion the nvidia driver (then went back to the latest)

    5. Disabling integrated GPU completely (this way my dedicated GPU saw only one screen)

    6. Forcing the use of dedicated GPU from Nvidia control panel (here I can see both screens attached to the integrated GPU despite dedicated GPU being forced from the settings)

    7. Restarted my notebook after every single change or update I've tried just to make sure

    8. Tried forcing dedicated GPU from BIOS but there was no such setting there

    9. Maxed out everything in power settings from the control panel, nvidia control panel and BIOS too and I'm plugged in, I'm not on battery



    All my video games run on the dedicated GPU, there is no problem with that part, they run perfectly. But I'm using two screens through a DELL WD19S docking station and I need both screens to run at 4K or at least 2K. My previous notebook that didn't even had a dedicated GPU could do that easily so I'm sure there's a way to do it with a Nvidia GPU. I know I'm missing something but I can't figure it out.

    How to increase Nvidia dedicated GPU dual gpu

    Dedicated GPU never used by apps Nvidia 820m EB1037

    Hello.

    I just got a miniPC Asus EB1037 with dedicated GPU 820m. All drivers works fine but there's a problem and I can't find solution...

    When I turn on game or some apps they ALWAYS use Intel HD GPU. Forcing GPU in Nvidia panel and in Graphics modes in Windows 10 changes nothing!

    I can use this 820m GPU only when game or app allows to select GPU inside it. Then 820m is used fine!

    I tried, I think, everything:

    - many drivers on Windows 7/8.1 and 10!

    - drivers after CCU clean from Asus download page for this miniPC on Windows 8.1 and on 10

    - complete disabling iGPU

    - this dont work too "bcdedit /set PCIexpress ForceDisable"

    - Windows 10 settings for GPU to choose performance or energy saving GPU shows only Intel HD in both options!

    God...I want to cry, I bought PC to use dedicated GPU and because of some Windows problem I can't use dedicated GPU for games/apps...

    Only virtualDJ and World of Warcraft (latest version) from my apps/games have option in it to choose GPU and only they can use dedicated GPU. It's not what I need.
