HP Recommended
Product: Zbook 15 G3
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

 

I have Zbook 15 G3 as my tool for CAD-modeling. It has integrated Intel HD 520 GPU and discrete AMD Firepro W4190M GPU.

 

I have very poor performance on CAD-modeling and I'm fairly sure that it is because the computer is not using 100% Firepro GPU when modeling.

 

Problem is, I'm not able to disable the integrated GPU. In BIOS, only options are to use Hybrid graphics or UMA-mode which is integrated only. My BIOS version is N75 Ver. 01.38.

 

In this video https://youtu.be/HE6WA2l-14w?t=208 the trick in case is done on HP laptop but with Nvidia card. I don't have that force to run discrete only mode -option.

 

So the question is, is it possible to force the laptop use only Firepro card and how is it done?
