Helljumper1339 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 So,My PC won't use my Nvidia Graphics card for games/The system in General. It uses the Intel ® Graphics instead which results in poor performance when I mod my game. I've tried Reinstalling the driver for my GPU, disabling the Intel Graphics. Changing the Skyrimprefs.ini file to my GTX GPU ( But it crashes as I launch the skyrim launcher). The thing is, I don't know if skyrim is using my Nvidia card or the Intel ®, since i've installed an ENB, and in the main menu of Skyrim it says that its using my Intel ® Graphics. But basically I want my system and Skyrim to use my Nvidia card, and yes, i've gone into the Nvidia Control Panel and set the 3D settings to use my High-Performance Nvidia Processor. PC SPECS AND MODEL MODEL: Asus ROG GR6GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 960MRAM/Memory: 8GB/8192MBPROCESSOR: Intel ® Core i5-5200U CPU @2.20GHz (4 CPUs) ~2.2GHzOS: Windows 8.1DirectX 11[intel ® HD Graphics 5000] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jones177 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Hi your motherboard has HDMI ports for the Intel graphics. Your monitor should be plugged into your video card. To see what you are using install Skyrim Performance Monitor. http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/6491/? Later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaterThanks for the reply, The thing is, the Asus RG6 only has 1 HDMI Port and a Display port. Wouldn't it be silly if the computer didnt use the GPU... heh (EDIT: I'll check out the mod you linked as well.) http://techreport.com/r.x/2015_4_15_ROG_GR6_miniPC_brings_Broadwell_GTX_960M_to_the_living_room/rog-gr6-rear.jpg Edited September 26, 2015 by Helljumper1339 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got these readings whilst playing Skyrim, I set the Video card in SPM to my GTX card and it shows performance in the screenshot. Does this mean that Skyrim is using my Nvidia Card?
