Hi all.

Is it possible to use a graphics card to share the load between the Intel HD Graphics 4600 and the graphics card?

GV-N210D3-1Gl

Since the graphics card is a weak one, I started using the CPU's Intel 4600.

Is there a way to use the weak card to help the CPU a bit?

Thanks

Edit - A new graphics card is out of the question for now but I can do most matches at 30FPS only using the CPUs graphics.

Short answer - no

Long answer - Certain applications with the proper hardware can do what you are talking about. Currently the technology isn't very well devoloped. You need specific hardware and software to utilize CPU's and GPU's in this way. I'm sure in a few more years it will be more common. AMD is trying to do it with their APU's.

Thanks for the reply ninjitsu.

Thought it was something as "simple" as configuring the computer to read physics from the GPU and leave the rest for the CPU.

Oh well, live and learn

You can use two nvidia cards to split the physics load. But that won't work with an integrated video card.

Currently you can only do that on AMD Systems that utilize an APU that has the same class GPU as your dedicated card. It's called Hybrid Crossfire I think. Currently it's only used on low end AMD Gaming laptops.

Sup, maybe you'll find something useful here: (was a great help to increase the performance an a low end notebook)
