Question / Help Enabled iGpu for Quick Sync and now games arn't using my dedicated GPU.

[steelmonkay]

Hello,
I searched around a bit and haven't seen anyone with this issue. I followed the guide to get Quick Sync working and everything seemed to go smoothly, but now any games I try to run are running at under 10fps. I think my pc is trying to run the games off of the Intel 4000 instead of my 7950. Is there any easy way to fix this?

I disabled the iGPU setting in my bios in the meantime, and everything is running perfectly again, but I am not sure why that happened. I have an ASUS P8Z77-V LK Motherboard so i'm not sure if there are some other settings I have to set?

DX games usually go off the primary display adapter but other than that, I dont have a clue what you did to cause that to happen.

Very weird, i also use quick sync and never had this problem, try to activate the igpu from bios and make sure your dedicated card is selected as primary device instead of automatic or something.

I think this was the issue! I had my main monitor going to my motherboars (intel 4000). I switched the cords so that my main monitory was hooked up to my 7950 and all seems to be working the way it should now. I will test further tonight, but I think that was the fix!
