I have a PC (tower) with an AMD Radeon as well as a GeForce RTX 3080 (running Windows 11 Home). vMix always ran fine, but suddenly I'm getting "GPU Overloaded", and all sorts of issues happening. I've attempted to do the steps in this article - https://www.vmix.com/kno...-nvidia-optimus-laptops.

However, the "Select graphics processor for this program" option is not there. After digging, I found that Windows now handles this. So, I went to System / Display / Graphics, and set up vMix as High Performance. I saved. I restarted.

Still, when I open vMix, under Settings / Performance / Graphics Adapter, I still see "In Use: AMD Radeon Graphics", and I can't select my Nvidia card.

I've updated my Nvdia drivers, vMix is up to date, uninstalled GeForce Experience...I'm not sure what else to do. Thanks for any help!

Hi,

Make sure all displays are only plugged into the GeForce and absolutely nothing is plugged in to the Radeon.
If you have any displays plugged into the Radeon at all, it will either become the primary display in Windows (which is why it is showing up in vMix) or it will
be shared with the GeForce which will cause severe performance issues.

Ultimately it is always recommended to only have one GPU installed for this reason.

Regards,

Martin
