Windows 10: IGPU issue

Hi, before updating my intel display drivers Task Manager showed 2GB of dedicated RAM for igpu with 8 GB shared memory but it indicates only shared memory also in display properties it shows 128 mb memory I am facing flicker and aliasing issues before my RAM is resvered 2GB and now only 300MB.Bios are not giving access for memory allocation.Device InformationHp Omen 16 wd0000nqi5 13420H16 GB RAM 5200MT/sintel UHD graphicsRTX 4050 6 GB

Igpu

Assuming your listed PC specs are correct, that CPU does not have an iGPU.

The MOBO does support other CPUs that do, hence the video ports.

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

 

Cannot force game to use iGPU even after changing setting

Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Restart your computer after changing the graphics settings for the application. Sometimes the new settings don't take effect until after a restart
   
2. Ensure that both your graphics drivers and Windows are fully updated. Sometimes, driver updates can resolve issues with GPU selection
   
3. Check BIOS/UEFI Settings:
   
   • Restart your laptop and enter the BIOS/UEFI settings (usually by pressing F2 or Delete during boot).
     
   • Look for settings related to graphics or GPU. Ensure that the iGPU is enabled and set as the primary GPU if possible.
     
4. Check if there is a setting in the Intel Graphics Command Center or Dell Power Manager software to force the use of the iGPU. Some laptop manufacturers provide utilities to override Windows' GPU selection.
   
5. As a last resort, you can temporarily disable the dGPU (Intel Iris Xe MAX Graphics) from Device Manager. This will force Windows to use the iGPU, but may impact performance for GPU-accelerated applications.
   

If none of these steps work, there may be an issue with the GPU drivers or Windows is not properly detecting/handling the dual GPU configuration on your laptop. In that case, you may need to contact Dell support for further assistance.
