Hi,
just bought a brand new laptop, MSI katana 17
if I click on blender, doing nothing, empty scene, default cube, youtube lags, vlc lags too, I tried
blender not only keeps other softs to use the local graphic card, but is not even using much of the Nvidia RTX card
anything I could do to solve this ??
even my old crappy laptop can read video while using blender
thx for your help
As far as I can tell, you would not see any GPU utilization in task manager unless you are actually moving around in the 3d view.
Have you tried turning on Hardware Acceleration in your browser or in VLC?
I tried setting apps affinity to their respective gpu
done tons of update
then I realized, once I started using Blender on the main screen, and edge on the second screen(wacom linked via hdmi), no more issues
which sucks, I cannot paint/sculpt and watch a video
no wacom update to install
fiddled around in nvidia control center, the refresh speed should be 120hz, but I dont find any option
maybe the nvidia is not linked to the hdmi output at all
this sucks to say the least
Maybe you should try to use only discrete GPU without the integrated one

I get a tad better result, disabling “use hw acceleartion” in edge
otherwise it just uses both gpu
indeed did not even think about going to msi center lol
hey, discrete mode thing seems to work, no more lags
