Laptop uses wrong GPU

[minennick]

Hey guys,
I bought the Game Cod Aw and in the graphics it says that the Game is using my onboard,Intel HD 4600, instead of my Nvidia 870m. I tried to Change it by setting my Nvidia as priority in the control panels But it didnt help. Also deactivating the onboard from Windows didnt help, its using Microsoft Basic.... My only Chance is deactivating it in BIOS But there Are not settings for. So how can i activate the Nvidia for cod?

Check your NVIDIA Control Panel to see if you can switch it to the NVIDIA GPU..
Or you can go to your Downloads Folder (Assuming you are on Windows 8.1 and have Downloaded the game), right click COD and click Run With Powerful 870m GPU..

Hope it helps!

No, I already tried it and it doesnt helped.
But thx.

Check your power plan. If it's on "balanced" or "power saver" it might be defaulting to whatever will preserve the most battery life. Change it to maximum performance and see if that changes anything.

How can i Change the Power Plan?

 

[ArchitSahu]

On the below right side of your screen, there should be a battery icon. Click it and it will allow your to switch your power mode to maximum or performance..

When i Change the Power panel from Balanced to High Performance and press ok and go back to the Same Option it resets itself to Balanced again.

Ok, I was able to Change to High Performance by (german) Windows mobilitätscenter, dont know in english. Started the Game again But it still Shows and uses the intel hd 4600

Hmmm... Are you sure you tried everything in the Nvidia Control Panel?

If not, go to your downloads folder, and right click the game, if it is there, and click run with powerful 870m Graphics Card.

Yes i tried everything in the control panels But nothing worked. The solution May be to turn of the intel hd 4600 in the bios But i cant find GPU settings there.
