Hello
I have a little problem, my laptop, have 2 graphics cards a Intel HD Graphics Family and a NVIDIA GeForce 740m. On every page i look for example" Can i run it" it says I have the Intel HD Graphics Family. But I obviously wanna use the NVIDIA GeForce 740m.
What should I do to the website "Can I Run It" say I have the GeForce?

You dont have 2 graphics cards you have an APU Which hold the cpu and gpu in the same chip

The integrated intel graphics are what your laptop uses 90% of the time, to render 2d images, play videos etc. When you enter more intensive 3D applications like games, your laptop switches to the nvidia descrete chip. It is called Nvidia Optimus Technology, and you can find more information here http://www.nvidia.com/object/optimus_technology.html

your laptop will use the intel hd graphics if what you are doing is not very intensive. once you start gaming it will switch over to the 740m, or you can go into the NVidia control panel and set the 740m to run on certain applications.
