NVIDIA Optimus for Desktop PCs
Hi
I have an iGPU and dGPU in my desktop PC. I want to have the NVIDIA Optimus Configuration where the iGPU works for normal browsing and surfing tasks, and dGPU kicks in when doing GPU intensive tasks i.e. gaming, video editing, AI programs.
I have plugged my display into the onboard HDMI slot instead of the dGPU's HDMI. In BIOS settings, the Onboard Graphics are set to Enabled.
When windows boots up, Intel command center works fine, but all the settings in NVIDIA Control Panel disappear. It implies that that with single monitor configuration, I can either use iGPU or dGPU for display.
About the usability on the dGPU, I can use it for AI tasks, but for gaming, the iGPU kicks in instead of dGPU, causing laggy gameplay.
The NVIDIA official drivers offer "Display.Optimus" folder which includes some configuration files to enable Optimus configuration in desktop PCs. I want to know how can I do it.
My PC Specs:
MoBo: Gigabyte Z390M
CPU: Intel Core i5 - 9600K
GPU: AORUS RTX 2070 Super 8GB
OS: Windows 10 Pro x64 (Build 1909)
