I have 2 GPUs, how do I switch? One is Intel (R) HD Graphics 530, and the other is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960m. By default, it is set to the onboard graphics (Intel HD graphics). How do I switch this?
 
Solution
Right click on the desktop, go to Nvidia control panel, manage 3d settings, program settings, and then for all the programs that you want to use the 960M for change the default gpu. There might also be a way to do it for all applications in global settings.
[strike]That is not enough information, please give us a lot more detail than that.

1. What are the models of the GPUs?
2. What are your computer specs?
3. Why do you want to switch GPUs? (more optional, but still nice to know.)[/strike]

EDIT: Thank you for adding all that info.
