Hi! I have a dedicated graphics card on my laptop. In nvidia control panel it says that my card is only connected to the vga connector and the hdmi is connected to graphics in the i5. Where do I go to read on this or explain this to me. Thanks.

the integrated graphics from processor act as the gpu to output pictures, when you are running games or something that will automatically use graphics card, the dedicated graphics card act as the renderer. so there shouldnt be anything wrong, it is how switchable graphics work in laptop with 2 gpu
