Windows 10: I CAN'T CHANGE what Windows defines as a "High-performance GPU???

I have 2 GPU: AMD Radeon r5 graphics and AMD Radeon M320.

Applications can see both, and the ones that have the config let me change the GPU in the options, working just fine.

But most applications don't have this option.

But since Aprils update, now Windows 10 has an option called the Graphics Settings, that lets you specify if you want to run an app with the "Power Saving GPU", or the "High-performance GPU".

Sadly, Windows doesn't seem to recognize the Radeon M320 as a High-Performance GPU, so as you can see here, this option doesn't work.

So... Is there any way to change what Windows defines as a "High-performance GPU"? Even if I have to change the registry.



Thank you in advance!

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.

I would guess that your GPU is faulty, the crashes that are most frequent seem related to the GPU.

I do have a suggestion, although this suggestion is more often seen with 0x9F crashes where drivers are in an inconsistent state for the OS.
Try to change the powerplan, standard there are following plans

1. Powersaver,
2. Balanced, standard selected,
3. High performance

If you didn't change your power plan, you have balanced selected.
Select High performance and see if it makes a difference.
