Question / Help Black screen - cant switch GPU

[hogst77]

Hello.

I got the black screen issue when I try to stream Twitch+OBS on my desktop computer.

I can see from many guides that the main solution to fix this problem is to switch the GPUs for OBS . My problem is that i don't get the option to switch the GPUs in control panel.

Here is my issues:

First of all, i don't have the "drop down" list in Nvidia Control Panel

When i try to manually chose the GPU, I only get the option for my 1080.

In my settings i can find both GPUS.

Anyone had the same problem and found a solution?

You don't need to switch GPUs on a desktop computer. This switching is due to hardware constraints on Laptops, but these constraints don't exist on desktop computers.
Your black screen is caused by a different issue.
