Question / Help Dual Card Issue while streaming. Choppy while Game is opened.

I am using an Alienware Alpha with an integrated nvidia gpu.
I recently rigged an external gpu dock and am using a dedicated graphics card (also nvidia).
No problems whatsoever with frame rate or choppiness while playing any game or any program outside of streaming.

Here is the issue.

As soon as I boot my stream up, and am in a game the stream starts sputtering.

I think the game is trying to use my onboard gpu and not my dedicated.
I've tried disabling the onboard, running it in all capture settings, I cannot seem to figure this out.

If anyone could help that would be awesome.

I would literally pay for a solution at this point!

Thanks in advance

Don't use display capture to capture games. Also you seem to be maxing out your GPU, limit fps or enable vsync in the game.

I actually figured it out.
I went into the global settings on nvidia control panel and swapped it over to the dedicated gpu.

everything seems to be in working order.

Will update tmrw with more information and if it fixed it truely
