Graphic Cards
August 3rd, 2016
I recently upgraded my graphic card to GeForce 9400 GT 1GB, and I still have the integrated one unused (NVidia nForce 5200, 512MB).
I was reading on some Google pages that it’s possible to use two graphic cards at once, can anybody please tell me how can I do that?
Thank you.
there is a software called Lucidlogix Virtu MVP , it combines the power of dedicated and integrated gpu , it also claims that it gives smooth vertical sync experience but majority of the people says it does more harm than good. so i dont recommend to do it , currently there is no proven technology that can perfectly do what you asked.

This is another mode that is not for performance enhancing. The setup consists of an IGP as well as a GPU on MXM module. The IGP would assist the GPU to boost performance when the laptop is plugged to a power socket while the MXM module would be shut down when the laptop was unplugged from power socket to lower overall graphics power consumption. Hybrid SLI is also available on desktop Motherboards and PCs with PCI-E discrete video cards. NVIDIA claims that twice the performance can be achieved with a Hybrid SLI capable IGP motherboard and a GeForce 8400 GS video card.
NVIDIA has a similar technology called Nvidia Optimus.
