Onboard gpu slows down nVidia gpu?

[eddiew]

Hey chaps,

Long short; I have 4 screens - a cintiq, a 24" monitor, and two little 17 satellites either side in PLP. An nVidia 760 drives the left satellite, main screen and cintiq, while the right satellite is connected to the motherboard.

Watching youtube on the satellite connected to the onboard graphics severely lowers the fps of games on the main monitor. Watching on the left side has no impact on fps

It's not a major problem, but it sure is counter-intuitive and it's a bit annoying that I have a screen that is off-limits for video...

Any suggestions, or even explanations, maybe? ^^;

Cheers!

maybe you can try this, open search programs and files on win start botton, type "power options", click on "show additional plans" and choose performance, then see if it works.
if that doesnt work click "change plan settings" then "change advance power settings" and scroll down to multimedia and pick video performance.
thats what comes to mind, hope it works, this is on win7, so i dont really know about 8 or 10
