Ram : 16go

GPU 1 : Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050

GPU 2 : AMD Radeon(TM) Vega 8

    @Racerx31x 

    At the top right of the NVIDIA control panel, click on Restore Defaults and then at the bottom, click on Apply.

    Check to make sure 100% your display is connected to your GPU and not the motherboard video output.

    Thanks.

  • I tried what you told me, but it didn't work. Thanks anyway.

    @Racerx31x Go to Windows display settings and than Graphics settings. Scroll down and browse for you NeedforSpeedUnbound.exe, click options and chose High Performance NVIDIA GTX 1050. Doing this via the control panel doesn't work good for a few years now already.

    @EA_Barry You are better of recommending people to switch GPU per application in the Windows Graphics setting under the Windows Display settings. Doing it via NVIDIA control panel doesn't work that well for a few years now.
  • @Sjonny30 I put 3 photos, one of which shows that I have already tried what you recommend me. Sorry but it don't work for this game. Thanks anyway

    @Racerx31x at this point I can just recommend reinstalling you graphics card drivers. Uninstall NVIDIA first and than AMD. When AMD drivers are uninstalled, reinstall them using Windows update. Than install the NVIDIA drivers manually by downloading them from the website.

    I know my setup isn't very good, but I know it's normally enough to run the game because I know someone with a similar setup who has no trouble running it.
