Summarize your bug Hi there, I've had an issue currently with the game picking the wrong graphics card. I currently run 2x GPUs in my rig, a 3070ti and a 3070. My display output runs through my 3070ti at all times. I've never had an issue with any other game other than this, but basically the game tries to use my 3070 rather than the 3070ti, which isn't the output device therefore it cannot recognise my display or anything. Pretty much breaks the display settings in-game. Is there a way to force run it on my output card, so the 3070ti as the only way I can currently temp-fix it is by disabling my 3070 fully which is not feasible.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1) Have 2 graphics cards in 1 rig. 2) Keep your display output as your 1st slot card on motherboard. 3) Run the game.
What happens when the bug occurs? The game opens in a small window, and once you reach the settings the display settings are all empty, because it's not using the correct gpu which has the display output.
What should be happening instead? Game opens or is forced to run with my display output card, in this case the 3070ti as it's the display output.
As seen by the attached pic, the display settings in-game are all blank because it's using my 3070 which is the 2nd slot card in the motherboard, and it's not the display output therefore I assume that's why it's doing this. My display output is set to my 3070ti at all times.
