Windows 10 Update Brings New Graphics Options

The latest Windows 10 preview build shipped to insiders in the Fast ring includes new graphics controls in a dedicated Settings page.

The new options are available at Settings > System > Display > Graphics settings and Microsoft says are specifically added to make choosing the GPU that a specific app runs on a bit more straightforward.

The screen allows you to choose app preferences depending on type (desktop and UWP), and users can also search for a specific item to quickly set their graphics settings.

“We’ve updated the Graphics settings page (Settings > System > Display > Graphics settings), allowing for better control over designating which GPU your apps run on. With this update, the app list and GPU preference are pre-populated on a best effort basis to improve the default preference management experience. If your desired app isn’t pre-populated, you can still add it by using the app selection drop-down,” Microsoft says.
