Alienware vs GPU GeForce 680 M GPU integrated m17r4

OK, I have problems with DCS A10C game. Given that the game feels heavy, my hunch was that game uses the graphics card Intel HD 4000 instead of GeForce 680 m is the steam forum entry where I first asked this question:

"This iGP is probably the problem (he actually integrated into the processor itself, not the mother, but never mind map)." The description of your problem is exactly with problems that are generally produce when running on the iGP.

We have seen many cases where, for some reason, machines with integrated graphics circuits eventually DCS running even when the value function on battery power. You can probably find a configuration somewhere in the nVidia configuration or similar Panel where you can force it to use the GPU 'real '.

The configuration of the battery most likely governs only windows itself (that is the circumstances where windows controls the screen, as when you browse the net etc.).

nVidia or the manufacturer of your computer (Dell) use of profiling that tells the computer when to use what. If they do not recognize the game (unfortunately, common for the simulators - unskilled salespeople in general don't do something more for something like niche like this), the computer never gets told to use 'real' GPU unless you do it for her.

On the profiler, you should then find the DCS.exe in the... \Bin\ folder of your domain controllers installation directory. "

Is there a way to make sure that the game uses the actual GPU and it integrated? If there is, how?

My best regards

  • Alienware m17x GPU R4 fried, need help in the search for replacement

    My M17x wouldn't turn on last week, so I took it to a computer repair center, and told me my GPU is fried, it's an Nvidia Geforce 675 m.  The told me to order a new and they would install it for me, after about 3 hours of scouring the internet for help, I could not find any Web site I am sure that sells any GPU for laptops.  I read a post earlier to buy the Detroit form alienware, or buy an aftermarket GPU for this, but I couldn't find one or the other.  Where can I buy the same GPU, or an upgrade that would always work in my laptop?

  • Replacing the fan for w/15.4 "screen and GPU integrated T60

    Greetings,

    The combo fan/heater several months ago, I bought for my T60 was apparently the 41W6409 for a T60 with discreet gpu and cpu, but mine is an integrated model that uses the 41W6408.

    As I can't return it, I was just thinking to replace the old fan with that on the new heatsink. But I'm not sure that it will fit, being the only FRU I could find for the Fan/Heatsink combo.

    So, I was wondering if someone here who happened to know if these fans are the same.

    Thank you very much in advance.

    Steve, you can use the unobtrusive radiator on your integrated motherboard. In fact, the best option in my opinion is to go with a T61 heatsink that is designed to cool the much more powerful X 3100 graphics and uses the thermal paste rather than pads type blade of silicone used to cool graphic systems T60. Alternatively, you can replace these pads with thermal paste on the heatsink T60 but unity T61 is better in my opinion. I can't tell you if the fans are interchangeable, because there was more than one fan used on the T60 models intel, some were, and some were not. There was also a discreet couple different sinks of heat, but will be more than enough for the cooling of your integrated graphics. Platform which cools the discrete gpu will not be used so it isn't a problem and cooling chipset platform will suffice for the cooling of your integrated graphics.

For a few months that I have problems with my dedicated gpu from overheating, so I start looking for activate the intel GMA HD. I went on this page http://support.hp.com/it-it/drivers/selfservice/HP-G62-100-Notebook-PC-series/4078809/model/4157959#... to download the driver I needed (sp48275.exe), but when I tried to install it pops up a message that says "this computer does not meet the minimum requirements to run this software. When I go into control panel-> device-> graphics cards Manager it shows only my radeon hd 5430 instead of the integrated and dedicated gpu. Even in the BIOS Setup, there is not a voice for switchable graphics, even in the catalyst control center software. So my question is, how can you activate my built-in gpu?

    So far, the GPU is not officially supported with Premiere Pro.

    But you can always install or use Premiere Pro with these cards. (NOTE: it might give you some performance related issues)

    These cards are still in the testing phase and once our team of engineers is done with all the tests, it will be updated on this document:

  • Photoshop CS6 does not recognize my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675 M GPU?

    I just bought a brand new Alienware M17x R4 with Windows 8 Pro x 64 and Photoshop CS6 does not recognize my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675 M GPU?

    I've already updated Windows 8, Photoshop and graphics drivers from Nvidia.

    Any ideas?  I spent so much on a nice graphics card, but now it seems that PS CS6 cannot even use.  It uses rather the HD4000 Intel:

    pscs6.png

    I also tried this: http://forums.Adobe.com/message/4545768#4545768

    And remove the settings, but that didn't help.

    According to this, my graphics card should work, it's an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675 M, which is a 600 GPU series: http://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop/KB/Photoshop-CS6-GPU-FAQ.html#tested_cards

    Tested for Photoshop CS6 video cards

    Adobe has tested the following video cards before the release of Photoshop CS6. This paper presents the video card in the series. The minimum amount of RAM supported on video for Photoshop CS6 cards is 256 MB. 13.1 Photoshop cannot display features 3D if you have less than 512 MB of VRAM on your video card.

    Important: This document is updated as newly released cards have been tested. However, Adobe cannot test the cards timely. If a video card is not listed here, but was released after may 2012, you can assume that the card will work with Photoshop CS6.

    Adobe tested laptops and desktops of the following cards versions. Don't forget to download the latest driver for your specific model. (Laptop and desktop versions have slightly different names).

    nVidia GeForce 8000, 9000, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600 series

    I'm out of ideas.  Any suggestions?

    So, I thought about it... duh.

    My bad... or rather, Nvidia is bad!

    In their app Profiler, they set Photoshop to use the settings "by default", which defaults to the built-in graphics card.  By changing the profile so that it uses the discrete graphics, it worked!

    It also fixed my issue of the flashing background / flicker.

    I know it's a bug known with Windows 8 + AMD (http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/image-background-transparent-or-flickers.html)

    However, Adobe should look at this same bug occurring with the HD4000 Intel Integrated GPU, because this happened with my laptop.

    Maybe this bug does not occur on systems that don't have a GPU integrated, but on systems with Optimus, that's certainly a reproducible issue.

    When I go to integrated, the question pops up again.

    It's nice that Nvidia offers an option for us to use the graphics integrated or discrete, however, Adobe must proceed and make sure that Photoshop doesn't wig when we use the Integrated GPU.  Sometimes, your customers need to do work on the energy of the built-in battery, so the flicker /flashing / transparent background bug should definitely be fixed.

    Personally, I can get 6 hours out of this laptop that runs the built-in GPU, but when I use the discreet, he cut down to only 2 hours.

  • How to change the GPU for notebook Alienware?

    I bought an Alienware Laptop since 12/2014. It has the Nvidia GTX860m 2 GB. Can I change? Because now it looks a little too old for the newest games.

    Any updates for your laptop is not void the warranty. It just will not be covered by the warranty.

    Here's the Alienware tested GPU you can upgrade.

    • GTX 770 m
    • GTX 780 m
    • R9 m290x
    • GTX 880 m

    Here are some community tested GPU that requires more than a simple swap-and-play.

    • GTX 970 m
    • GTX 980 m

    I suggest go at notebookreview forum if you are considering getting a series of 900 m GTX GPU. The full manual, found on the Dell support site, gives you detailed instructions on concealment and re-Assembly of the laptop. No need to contact Dell.

  • I can passthrough Haswell Integrated GPU?

    Hi all

    is it possible to passthrough the GPU integrated HD4600 to an i7-4770 to a virtual machine? Or any other Integrated GPU of a CPU Haswell?

    And if it is the only graph in the system, ESXI continues to run without its console?

    The Council would be an Asrock - extreme4, ESXi 5.5 Z87m

    Thanks for the ideas,

    Heinrich

    No built-in GPU:s can be used "Passthrough" (VT - D), you need a PCIe virtual GPU to be able to do this since basically pass you the PCIe card set for a machine.

    If you go through the only graphics card in the system, then you lose the console.

  • Has anyone got the upgrade of GPU for H8-1234 with motherboard HP M3970AM HP (Angelica2)?

    I improved my diet for a Corsair CX series CX500M 500W ATX 80 Plus Bronze modular power supply 12V successfully and I want to assure you that I have buy a compatible GPU for the motherboard.

    If I go to http://www.pc-specs.com/mobo/HP/HP_M3970AM-HP (Angelica2) _ / 2042 and click on compatible GPU it lists AMD and Nvidia cards.

    The series of HD AMD goes up to the HD6000 series and does not list any HD 7000 series.

    The only Nvidia 600 series which is decent is the GeForce GTX-660-670-680 or 690.

    The site also shows (these graphics cards have an appropriate interface to work with and integrate into the HP M3970AM - (Angelica2). Because this motherboard does not have a GPU chip on board, we have also limited GPU integrated only to those which are integrated to die of a CPU.)

    Cards GTX listed are all much more expensive than 650 Ti DirectCU OC Boost 1085 MHZ 2 GHz 6.0 GB GDDR5 2xDVI card PCI-E HDMI DP that is not listed or even GTX550 TI, which is not listed

    The Amd HD listed series cards are unavailable or more expensive than most of the HD 7000 series.

    Has anyone successfully installed a card $ 100 from low to medium priced which is a significant improvement on the hd 7450? If you could please let me know what graphics card you purchaced.

    Thank you

    Gbrown13, welcome to the forum.

    The limiting factor for the video card upgrade is the power supply unit (PSU).  It is 300W.  Intermediate level maps latest require at least 400W to work properly.  7450 HD comes with the computer has been designed for HP operate with OEM PSU.  A detail 7450 HD very probably would not work.  In addition, you should limit the length of the video card to no more than 9 ".  This ensures that it fits in the space provided.  The majority of the double cards are 1.5 "wide.  These are normally without any problems.

    I hesitate to recommend a video card on the grounds that it will be much better than an existing map.  It is difficult to say that this is the case.  Here is a map which might work for you, with an upgrade of the power supply.  Read the reviews to see what users have to say about it.

  • New laptop - need GPU?

    Hi all

    I got a MacBook Air, 13 "(un plus rapide je pourrais acheter il y a 2,5 ans), but was recently pronounced dead that I accidentally spilled some cola on this (VERY stupid)."

    In any case, I'm looking to buy a new laptop and I was wondering on the GPU.  I am now watching powerful laptops and mobile work stations with dedicated GPU, but as I had a few problems of LR with my PC recently (balance - changed in the develop module, not carried out in the library of the white module)),

    I was told to cut the GPU acceleration.  My PC is an Intel Core i7 - 4930K CPU @3 processor. 40 GHz, 32 GB RAM, SSD HDD and a Nvidia GeForce GTX770 graphics (2 GB, GDDR5).

    When I got my assembled PC, I bought the best graphics card, I could afford in time, as well as the CPU, the RAM, what I wanted to do now too.

    Although my new laptop (will be a PC, as I am not a big fan of Mac), promises to be very fast too, I was wondering if I really need to spend so much money for a dedicated GPU card if I need to turn it off anyway?

    I read what follows here on the forum:

    Notes for Lightroom CC GPU (2015)

    And I do understand that I need to look to the future (reason for getting a fast machine now)...

    I was looking at a Dell XPS15 (6700HQ-I7 Quad Core, 6 MB Cache - 3.5 GHz) with Ultra HD 15.6 inch 4 K (with touch) screen, 16 GB of RAM and Geforce GTX 960 M 2 GB GDDR5 GPU).

    The other is a Dell Precision 5000 - 15 inch (i7-6820 HQ, Quad Core, 2.7 GHZ, 8 MB of Cache with Intel card 530 chart, 16 GB of RAM and Nvidia Quadro M1000M with 2 GB memory GDDR5).

    The laptop will be used primarily on location shoots and holidays when photo editing on the go in Lightroom as Photoshop.  I'll still wait to process completely on my PC at home (with calibrated EIZO screen).  But as I still have a lot to travel with, I want to make the computer as light as possible.  That's why I was looking at the XPS13, but this is not a dedicated GPU...

    That's the real question...  Do I really need to use the GPU acceleration in LR, so I'll buy a 15 inches, but otherwise, I go for the much less expensive (and MUCH lighter, XPS13).

    I am forward-looking and want to buy a machine that will last me for at least the next few years of 4/5, but I don't want to break the Bank if I have not...

    Any advice is welcome!

    If your laptop computer has a screen HD (1920 x 1080) or the surrounding area, you can use a GPU integrated on the motherboard, or even low range GPU.

    The only time you need a GPU is if you found a 4K or larger screen high range.

    This statement is for Lightroom instruction only. If you have other software, you can have different needs.

  • By selecting a GPU

    It is possible to select the graphics processor that LR CC to use?  In CC PS I am able to change the settings so that it uses the GeForce 930 M rather GPU integrated but I can't do that in LR.  If I use the NVIDIA tool to change the settings (as I did for the PS) I don't even see LR as a program that can be selected.

    Thank you

    Pete

    If you experience any problems within LR, I wouldn't worry on this subject.

    For the benefit of the other who landed here with LR questions here's some info:

    Sounds like your laptop uses the Nivida Optimus technology. It allows the Nvidia GPU for applications in graphics resources such as 3D games, and it shuts down to save energy when you use other applications. The Nvidia Control Panel apparently thinks that LR is not a graphics intensive application. It is not likley Adobe or Nivida will be the "difficulty" of this question in an update, you should be able to manually select as I have suggested and it worked for a user to activate the Nvidia GPU in LR6. You may have to restart the laptop so that it takes effect.
