Hybrid Graphics - Can you select one card? - Remix OS for PC

I have integrated Intel Graphics on my motherboard which works absolutely fine with Remix but I also have an Nvidia card that does not work that well with it. I have a dual boot setup and ideally would use the Nvidia for Windows and the Intel for Remix.
I know I can manually switch in the Bios but that's not the neatest of solutions.
My Bios does allow both cards to be used at the same time, but when doing to Remix won't boot (stuck at the Android x64...) bit.
Is there anything I can do via the grub to tell it to ignore the PCI-E GPU and hopefully get it to boot?
Thanks!

set in grub i915.modeset=1 for intel gpu and set noveau.modeset=1 for nvidia gpu
hope that works.
Edit: idk if it will work with pci-e gpu, but it should work with dual integrated gpu like in notebook

Thank you so much - it was as easy as that! I'd been playing with various modest parameters trying to get the nvidia working but hadn't clocked that I could force a gpu using it too. Works perfectly!

Optimal NVS optmus gpu performance

Which is the best for performance and opengl es 3x support? given that Ferrmi cards aren't going be supported by the vulkan api by nvidia drivers.
1. To disable optimus and run the nvidia gpu using their Linux driver.
2. Same as above but run with Gallium driver.
3. Same as above but with Nouveau driver.
4. Bumblebee - is this even supported by Remix OS?
5. PRIME - Same question as Bumblebee is it supported?
I managed enable the nvidia gpu whilst in optimus mode using
nomodeset i915.modeset=0 nouveau.modeset=0 which ran Gallium llvmpipe but the performance was dreadful and the resolution was lowered, is Gallium llvmpipe a software renderer? is their a way to run Gallium hardware rendering the same as Intel gpu or is Nouveau the proper usage scenario?
Remix OS kept crashing using just i915.modeset=0 nouveau.modeset=1 and Aida64 stalled / locked up but ran without problem using the Intel gpu.

How can I tell Remix which graphics card to use?

My laptop has both integrated and Nvidia graphics. In benchmarks (3D Mark) my laptop using integrated graphics scored higher than every Android device except the Shield X1 console thing. But I want to use my dedicated card instead for futureproofing because I play a lot of intensive games and they will get more demanding in the future. Is there a way to force Remix to use my dedicated card. Or is it an option that could be added in a future update?
Please use search.. "remixos Nvidia"
Try this...
At boot edit grub add:
I915.modeset=0 nouveau.modeset=1
After "quite"
Goodluck

HP Compaq Presario CQ57 (PLEASE SUPPORT)

so i have hp compaq cq57 and i was so exciting about the remix os .. but the problem is that i found that my laptop not supported
as i open mx player and choose HW Decoder it's not working
and when i try to open simple game as shadow fight it's say something about the graphic .. and it's really lagy
i hope that you add support to my laptop
my specs is
CPU : AMD E300
GPU : AMD Radeon HD 6310 Discrete-Class
4 gb ram
I have CQ60 and same It is because of the AMD cpu that's not compatible with MX. use Kodi it's awesome, and has youtube addon to watch youtube as Youtube app may not work as well like mine.

Would Remix OS perform better than Remix OS Player?

Hello,
I've recently installed Remix OS Player on my PC but it hasn't met that image on my mind, it was very laggy and had a long mouse delay.
My PC specs are,
CPU: i3-4130
RAM: 8GB 1600Mhz
GPU: AMD Radeon r9 270x
SSD: Intel 60GB
HDD: WD Green 2TB
I didn't want to start downloading games as I was afraid they would be also laggy so I thought that installing Remix OS itself as an OS would be much better (2 cores instead of 1, 8GB RAM instead of 3, etc.)
Would it be smooth? Should I install it on the HDD or remove my windows from SSD and install it there? I'm not looking to replace my windows just it's location.
I'm sorry if this is kind of spamming the forum I thought I'd get help directly from users.
@Iamhady Remix OS Player is an emulator which implies far lower performance when compared to system ran natively on the machine.
Remix OS for PC is a full OS and it will definitely run faster than Player. On your specific device it should run very fast regardless of whether u install it on HDD or SSD.
Of course SSD will provide even better performance, but that's just up to you.
Have in mind that Remix will most likely utilize your integrated graphics card instead of the dedicated Radeon.
You can always install Remix to a USB stick and boot from it as a test.
Once you boot Remix on your device, go to settings, about tablet and scroll down to find OPENGL renderer. If it's Intel mesa/i915 than OK, if it's radeon - even better. If it's Intel, you can test if Remix can use the dedicated graphics card by adding EXTMOD=radeon to kernel line in grub menuentry (u can find how to do that on that forum or in Google).
Good luck

@Vioner thank you for the info! Glad to know so before downloading Remix OS.
I'll try installing it on a USB stick first and see how that goes.
As for the graphics I wouldn't mind if it uses the integrated graphics as long as it can run any Android game with a playable frame rate. But I really hope it can use the GPU for games like Mortal Kombat X and other GPU intensive games.
I've started downloading it!

You have luckily downloaded it in the last version day
Farewell, Remix OS. (Focusing on enterprise, huh.)
