Following a recent restart, I found some issue with my computer where it would start running on the iGPU instead of the actual GPU (keep in mind I use an external monitor, so the computer has always used the actual GPU before the issue). The only temporary solution I found is disabling the iGPU display adapter, but its starting to cause some issues when putting things into fullscreen. Any ideas?

are you sure your external monitor is directly connected to your dGPU?
are you running it with your internal display disabled?

try reinstalling your drivers

#
  1. use ddu to wipe your igpu and dgpu drivers
  2. install the latest igpu and dgpu drivers
