My Pc has 2 graphics cards! How to make them work together!
So, to make this as short as posible.
I got this Laptop from a friend its a Lenovo y500 and he added another Graphicscard by removeing the cd driver.
So I have 2 nvidia GeForce GT650M sound cool huh? well not really.
I was expecting them to work together as a single Powerful Graphicscard but they dont.
So my question is can I trick my laptop somehow to make them work together on the same game?
cause right now for exaple I can run LoL on one graphicscard and CsGo on the other but thats not very helpfull since I wont play both games at the same time
Some help? Much appreciated!
(and no im not good at computers at all so if u have a solution pls explain it as good as u can XD Ty!! )
To use both prod the Nvidia control panel and enable SLI, though you'll not get as big a boost as you expect, probably only around 30 - 40%
*EDIT*
Seems you need a bigger PSU to do it, the normal one (120w) apparently doesn't have enough juice. Gotta make sure it's a 170w one or it'll refuse to work. It'll also disable it when it's running on battery.
/moved thread to a better place.

Sry did not realize there is a better place for the thread Ups
Ok si I checked my PSU and indeed its a 170w one (he probably changed it)
So there is nothing els I can do?
If not. would it help to run my screen on one Card and My games on the other one? if yes how do I do that cause right now the first app I open is on the same GraphicsCard as my monitor :-s
