OBS is a popular application for screen recording and live streaming. My issue started when trying to record my screen using an application called OBS Studio. It even tells you this in the Nvidia control panel, but I just ignored it. And it had always been that if I wanted to force an application to run on either the integrated graphics chip or Nvidia discrete GPU, the Nvidia control panel was the place to go.īut starting in the Windows 10 April 2018 Update, graphics processor preference is controlled in the Windows 10 Settings app. I’ve always opted for Nvidia GPUs and Intel processors because better the devil you know. In fact, it had been so long since I’d had any issues with the graphics processing units (GPU) in my daily driver device, I’d not noticed some important changes to the graphics configuration options in Windows. As an IT administrator or business professional, you might not have reason to change graphics settings in Windows 10 very often.
