Hello together,
I'm total new to Garudo linux.
My pc has an uncommon setup of two gpus, one old gtx780 and a newer rx5700xt. The amd GPU is primary used for gaming and stuff and the gtx780 only for the OBS Studio to render the stream (just for fun, no big deal), but the rx5700xt is to weak to game @4k and also render the stream.
My problem is now: how can I switch the primary gpu under garudo?
They are both installed, but default the nvidia gpu is used for everything.
I clicked a bit through the optimus manager, but can't really find a way to switch it on the gui. I also tried running Valheim, it works, but the performance is very poor what might be the use of the wrong gpu.
Have you any idea how I can get the amd gpu working as primary?
