All operations remain dependent on combined visuals rather than separate GPU units
I've explored every method possible to make my dGPU the primary GPU. So far, nothing has succeeded. My setup uses a Samsung Notebook 9 Pro (NP940X5N-X01US). I often switch between Windows Graphics Settings, search for specific apps, or manually adjust AMD Radeon Software. Is there a way to configure it as the system-wide default for all applications and processes?
You'd prefer this setup because it keeps everyday tasks simple while offloading demanding work to specialized hardware. Basic functions stay smooth in a regular browser, and the system handles intensive games or apps with the extra power dedicated to them.
By default, laptops run light applications that make efficient use of the built-in GPU to conserve energy and reduce heat. When performance demands increase, the system automatically shifts to a dedicated GPU for optimal speed. Maintaining this setup is recommended to preserve battery life.
