How to Adjust Windows Graphic Settings for SOLIDWORKS

Selecting the correct Windows graphic settings for SOLIDWORKS can improve overall performance when working with Solidworks.

A “few” years back (pre Windows 10) we could change this setting in the video cards control panel. Since Windows can now control more items at a hardware level and override settings from other applications, I have moved to setting this at the Windows level instead.

Check out this video for a step-by-step guide to make sure Windows is selecting the right graphics card for SOLIDWORKS.
