In the BIOS settings it should be possible to set the graphics card.

But I do not understand these topics too much, unfortunately, would you be able to help me?

But wait, where is the monitor connected? This is a laptop? The monitor is to be connected to a dedicated card and it will run in Bios, do not touch anything. Leave it on the car. You can turn off the integrated card, but when a dedicated one falls and you cut the monitor, you will not start the computer. You will have to restart the bios. I do not know the corporate pc does it have one monitor output?

Enytjoo · Answer

This is how it is a computer, the monitor is simply connected to the computer

But which exit? Is it on the motherboard or on the graphics card?

There is probably one monitor output like in laptops. You have drivers from radeon installed. There should be a card panel on the bar next to the clock and this is how the dedicated card is to be set and in which programs. By default, in fullscreen games, it should work. You can also check it there in the card activity panel. I don't know exactly what amd is like. There is also an option to disable the card integrated in the bios, although it may not be here.

Well, even full screens of the game go to the integrated one, I know that you can set the game to high performance in the graphics card settings, then the game starts on the dedicated one, but not every game can be done this way. now I read that because it's some UEFI, maybe something can work in it? that the dedicated card is the default one and preferably the integrated one

bumble · Answer

Integrated can be turned off in the bios. On the other hand, in the activity panel, you choose which programs to use the dedicated one, and it really makes no sense for all of them to use a dedicated one. Check out the performance benchmark of these cards. Is this Intel such a crap? I have the 8th gen i5 and it's ok even for games e.g. lol.

1.If I would like to switch off this card integrated in biose, how?
2. If I would already disable this integrated card, would the computer lose performance?

and from what I saw in the monitor, there are probably 2 inputs

The monitor is well connected via HDMI, there is nothing to draw on.
1. It is rather impossible to disable the integrated UEFI card, since the image from the radeon probably goes through it.
2. It is possible to indicate the executable file of a given game / application in this way:

But, for example, in GTA Online in RP I can not play because, as he adds, the game is still played from Intel

Or, for example, another minecraft is minecraft launcher adds it this way and it does not give anything, because minecraft is launched by some jave.exe, there are many other examples
