    Laptop has a hard time detecting switchable graphics.

    Hi, Thanks for the response. I want to hold off on opening up the laptop because the screws are about to bust (meaning that the t shape screws are not t shape anymore because I used a horrible screw drivers when I opened it to install the ssd) However, I experimented and found out some more...

    Laptop has a hard time detecting switchable graphics.

    Hi, I currently have the Lenovo Y50 and I accidentally dropped it (while it was off) and although everything seems to be fine, the laptop tends to have a difficult time detecting my GTX 860m. Three things usually happen randomly: 1. Works perfectly fine. 2. Works fine then suddenly game lags...

    Corner of my laptop screen is slightly more white/grey

    Thanks for replying. I believe it is still under warranty however, the problem isn't bother me all that much. It's only noticeable if the screen is dark enough.

    How does a dedicated gpu and an integrated gpu switch in a laptop?

    I've done that and it does indeed detect it when I open HWMonitor while a game is running. My question is, how does it work when it's not using the gtx? Does the gtx run in the background while the computer is idle and uses the integrated intel hd? Or does the gtx completely shut off when it's...

    How does a dedicated gpu and an integrated gpu switch in a laptop?

    Hi, I recently bought a Lenovo Y50 and i've been trying to keep track of the GTX 860m temps but it's showing some weird results. I understand that when the pc is idle or when it's not running anything graphics intensive, then the gpu switches over to the intel hd. The question is, how does it...
