how to check if nvidia or intel graphics is being used [closed]

I have a laptop with nvidia graphic. How can I find if the program is running with nvidia graphics card or with the intel graphics.I searched for this query but could not find the suitable answer?


Solution 1:

The easiest way to look it up is to use System Info.

Start > Run (or Win+R) > MSINFO32

MSIFNO32

Under Components, look for Display click it, and it will give you info about what windows is using.

Solution 2:

You are checking and asking if dedicated vs integrated being used correct? If so, try looking within your default devices and seeing which appears to be running. Also, try placing under stress (eg: benchmarking program) and seeing how well it runs. If it runs very well; how well you would expect a nvidia graphics card to work, then you are fine. If not it COULD be nvidia being used but a bottleneck. More info needed for diagnosis
