Can't select dedicated gpu
#1
Rightyo legends, here's my problem.

I can't seem to get PCSX2 (any version) to use my graphics card. Normally just using the processor alone (and sometimes some speed hack tinkering) gets the job done. but I really would like to sort this out because I'm trying to play Baldur's Gate and I'm S T Ruggling.

PCSX2 Ver 1.4
CPU i7- 3630QM 2.40Ghz
GPU 7970m

The only option it gives me with the Adapter select is Intel® HD Graphics 4000.

Cheers

Go into your GPU-settings and set pcsx2 to use the proper gpu.

Also, set your power management options to "high performance".

UHH! I don't think that Laptop will even handle Baldurs Gate to be honest. Its one of most demanding game engines on the emulator.

I think chris is on the right track up there. Been a while since I messed with a system that had switchable graphics, but I'm thinking that its done in the NVidia control panel application.

Yea no dice -_-
Selected High Performance, Created a profile in RADEON settings, but the card still won't show up in the adapter and no improved performance.
