  • Is there a way to let BurnInTest automatically select the primary GPU for 3D Test?

    We are repairing notebooks in our company and testing them with BurnInTest before sending them back to the customer.

    However, there is an issue on some models which have 2 GPUs (1x Intel and 1x nVidia/AMD). BurnInTest is running the 3D test automatically on the Intel GPU on these devices. We have to go to nVidia 3D Settings each time and manually set the nVidia GPU as standard.

    Sometimes, after downloading the newest nVidia drivers, an automatic profile for "BurnInTest 6.0" is added and the option to change default GPU is greyed out. We are using BurnInTest 8.1 (1010) Pro currently, but it was the same with BIT 7.1 also.

    I'm not sure currently, if devices with 2nd AMD GPU are affected in a similar way.

    Is there any way to tell BurnInTest directly which standard GPU it should use?

    Unfortunately BurnInTest has very little control over which video card is used, this is generally controlled by the Nvidia/AMD graphics settings directly.

    On laptops using switchable graphics like this often BurnInTest will not even see the two cards as available and only one is presented for use.
