Cant choose graphic card for game

Hi there Asdf,

Thanks for reaching out here in Xbox Forums. I understand there is a question on choosing a graphic card for a game. I recommend reviewing the system requirements for the games you would like to play. Try checking out this link:

• Superhot - System Requirements
• Troubleshoot gameplay issues on Windows 10

For more information from the community, I recommend creating a discussion in the
Windows - Gaming on Windows 10

and reaching out to the graphic card support for more information.

In reference to your post, I would like to remind you of the
Xbox Forum Guidelines.

• 4) Do not post or use profanity or any creative form of bypassing the word filters. Even if it’s ****** don’t post it.
• 9) Please do not have a large percentage of your posts that are only negative rants against anything Microsoft, Xbox, or the membership. This is a form of trolling that only inflames the community and incites
  more flaming and abusive posts.

Give that a try and let us know the results.

Sorry, I just thought Microsoft appreciates users opinions.

That's not the problem. I have two graphic cards. One integrated (weak) and dedicated (at least better, Nvidia GeForce 940MX). It's a laptop and usually uses the weak one. Some games by default using the weak one (like superhot game here), so I have to switch
used graphic card to dedicated. I'm doing that in Settings -> Home (System?) -> Display -> Graphics settings (Some might be mispelled, cause I'm using system in my native language). I have to point there an .exe file and choose desirable option.

With game installed with xbox I can't point to installed .exe (I'm guessing it's still .exe and not some other executable extension), because it's in Program Files\WindowsApps, where I don't have permission to enter. Can't modify security settings to allow
myself in any way and I strongly believe, that switching that directory owner might break something.

So please, tell me how can I run this game using better GPU?

Hi Fellow gamer,

Thanks for your response on the issue. Have you made sure the Nvidia is completely up to date? Also, in the Nvidia control panel settings there should be a way to select that card. If not you will need to get in touch with the laptop manufacturer to disable
the integrated one. As doing so within the BIOS can cause instability. So we highly recommend doing this with the manufacturer.

Thanks,

Brad

Hi there,

Thanks for the reply. Have you tried anything suggested in my last post? If you have, what were your results? Did you get any errors?

As I mentioned, download the GeForce Experience NVIDIA app and there will be settings in there. From doing a simple Google search, I found this page, which will hold your hand through the process. :

Please follow as much advice as possible and feel free to reply, with an update. Check Device Manager to make sure that your PC is detecting things correctly.

Best,

So, to be clear. I can't choose graphic card for any windows apps (especially games) with windows available way XD? Yaaay!
