In most cases, they usually work fine together and the system will switch to either one when there is a need for it. However, if left unoptimized, you won&#8217;t be getting the full performance from it. Here are some methods I used to optimize my dual GPU laptop for peak performance.<\/p>\n\n\n<nav useBlockProps class=\"content-toc-wrapper relative\" aria-label=\"Table of Contents\"><div id=\"content-toc-header\" class=\"content-toc-header flex cursor-pointer items-center justify-between\">\n                <span class=\"text-sm font-semibold\">Table of Contents<\/span>\n                <span class=\"toc-caret\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" class=\"chevron\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\"><use xlink:href=\"#icon-chevron\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span>\n            <\/div><div class=\"content-toc hidden w-full\"><div class=\"toc\"><ul class=\"toc-content font-semibold\"><li><a href=\"#latest-drivers\" class=\"toc-link block mb-6\">Get the Latest Drivers For Both GPUs<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#priority-gpu\" class=\"toc-link block mb-6\">Give Priority to Dedicated GPU in Power Plan Settings<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#select-gpu\" class=\"toc-link block mb-6\">Manually Select Which GPU is Used For an App<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#fan-speed\" class=\"toc-link block mb-6\">Manage Fan Speed Based on GPU Temperature<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#disable-throttling\" class=\"toc-link block mb-6\">Disable Throttling to Avoid Bottlenecks<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/nav>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"latest-drivers\">Get the Latest Drivers For Both GPUs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the issues of a dual GPU laptop can be resolved by updating the GPU drivers. The latest drivers are more important for dual GPUs as they work together and need to be in sync to take full advantage of the latest optimizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I highly recommend using the GPU manufacturer&#8217;s software to update drivers. Not only do they automatically install the correct driver, they also offer more granular control over GPU features. Here are some of the popular manufacturer software:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvidia.com\/en-us\/geforce\/geforce-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"50704\">NVIDIA GeForce Experience<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/apps.microsoft.com\/detail\/9nf8h0h7wmlt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"50705\">NVIDIA Control Panel<\/a> (for old laptops)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amd.com\/en\/products\/software\/adrenalin.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"50706\">AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amd.com\/en\/resources\/support-articles\/release-notes\/RN-RAD-WIN-15-7-1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"50707\">AMD Catalyst Control Center<\/a> (for old laptops)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intel.com\/content\/www\/us\/en\/products\/docs\/graphics\/graphics-command-center.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"50708\">Intel Graphics Command Center<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intel.com\/content\/www\/us\/en\/support\/detect.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"50709\">Intel Driver &amp; Support Assistant<\/a> (works on old laptops too)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These apps will automatically install the latest drivers. Alternatively, you can use a <a href=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/driver-update-tools-windows\/\" data-lasso-id=\"50710\">driver updater tool<\/a> if you prefer not to install the manufacturer\u2019s software. For more help, check out our detailed guides on <a href=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/update-nvidia-graphic-drivers\/\" data-lasso-id=\"50711\">updating Nvidia graphics<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/update-amd-graphics-drivers-windows\/\" data-lasso-id=\"50712\">AMD graphics<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"priority-gpu\">Give Priority to Dedicated GPU in Power Plan Settings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether Windows uses the integrated or dedicated GPU for a particular task depends on the power plan settings. For example, it will try to use integrated GPU whenever possible to save power. Since we are looking for better performance, I recommend configuring the system to use the dedicated GPU for most tasks as it&#8217;s the most powerful. Here&#8217;s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Windows Search, type &#8220;power plan&#8221; and open <strong>Edit power plan<\/strong>. Click on <strong>Change advanced power settings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"351\" src=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/change-power-plan-settings.png\" alt=\"Change power plan settings option in Windows 11\" class=\"wp-image-765458\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Open <strong>Switchable Dynamic Graphics<\/strong> (or <strong>Nvidia Optimus<\/strong>) -> <strong>Global Settings<\/strong> and set it to <strong>Maximize performance<\/strong>.

To overcome this, you can manually choosing the correct GPU for an app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Windows Settings, go to <strong>System<\/strong> -> <strong>Display<\/strong> -> <strong>Graphics<\/strong>. Here, you can select the graphics preferences for any app. You should select <strong>High performance<\/strong> if you want it to use the dedicated GPU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"759\" height=\"492\" src=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/select-gpu-preference-windows.png\" alt=\"A game with high performance GPU option\" class=\"wp-image-765459\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also use this feature to select <strong>Power Saving<\/strong> mode for apps that you don\u2019t want to share dedicated GPU resources with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"fan-speed\">Manage Fan Speed Based on GPU Temperature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since you&#8217;ll be taking full advantage of the dedicated GPU, you&#8217;ll probably face overheating issues. Unfortunately, most laptops use CPU temperature as the main factor to adjust fan speed. However, in your case, the GPU is probably going to heat up faster. To deal with this, I prefer using aggressive fan controls using GPU temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recommend the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.almico.com\/sfdownload.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"50714\">SpeedFan<\/a> tool for this as it works for most laptops and offers granular control. Launch the app and click on <strong>Configure<\/strong> once the fans are detected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"708\" height=\"280\" src=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/speedfan-configure.png\" alt=\"Speedfan Configure button\" class=\"wp-image-765461\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Move to the <strong>Fan Control<\/strong> tab and click <strong>Add<\/strong> to create a new controller profile. Afterward, open the new profile, click on <strong>Add<\/strong> under the <strong>Temperatures<\/strong> section, and select your dedicated GPU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"441\" src=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/add-gpu-controller-800x441.png\" alt=\"SpeedFan fan control settings\" class=\"wp-image-765456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/add-gpu-controller-800x441.png 800w, https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/add-gpu-controller.png 853w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can now adjust the graph on the right to make the fans run at a faster speed at a lower GPU temperature. I prefer using maximum fan speed starting at 50\u00b0C, you can choose lower or higher as per your need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"436\" src=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/adjust-gpu-temperature-800x436.png\" alt=\"Adjustuing GPU temperature graph\" class=\"wp-image-765457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/adjust-gpu-temperature-800x436.png 800w, https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/adjust-gpu-temperature.png 844w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"disable-throttling\">Disable Throttling to Avoid Bottlenecks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Thermal throttling is a big issue on laptops with dedicated GPUs as they have limited cooling options. Although it&#8217;s impossible to completely avoid thermal throttling, you can increase the threshold. By default, most laptops will take signals from the GPU to throttle the CPU even when the CPU temperature is fine. When the CPU throttles, it bottlenecks the GPU as well, and overall system performance drops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can disable this behavior using the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techpowerup.com\/download\/techpowerup-throttlestop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"50715\">ThrottleStop<\/a> app. Launch the app and uncheck the <strong>BD PROCHOT<\/strong> option to disable it. Just make sure you click on <strong>Save<\/strong> afterward to apply changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/throttlestop-disable-bd-prochot-800x443.png\" alt=\"Throttlestop disable Bd Prochot option\" class=\"wp-image-765462\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/throttlestop-disable-bd-prochot-800x443.png 800w, https:\/\/maketecheasier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/throttlestop-disable-bd-prochot.png 847w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Do note that this only prevents one type of throttling.
