Currently I'm trying to stream league of legends. So I have set up game capture, and all that good jazz. I am running on a laptop a sager NP9170, with a 7970m and a intel 4000. So whenever i get to the video scroll down bar in the video tab in the obs settings, I only have one option to choose for my gpu, which is my intel 4000. My question is, how do I use my 7970m for the video graphics instead of the integrated graphics. Also when I use game capture with the intel 4000 while in game, the screen is black but I can see my league of legends mouse. Contrary to that, in monitor mode I can see my game, but its kinda of laggy and the ping is a bit high. Please help me use my dedicated graphics thanks!

Thank you,
Chance

Unfortunately, being on an AMD laptop with Intel switchable graphics, you won't be able to. You'll have to use Window Capture with Compatibility mode checked in order to be able to capture anything. An unfortunate reality of these AMD laptops, due to the way their drivers work.
