Setting up and optimizing onboard graphics cards for single and multi-monitor configurations on Windows 10 and Windows 11 involves a few key steps, regardless of the specific GPU brand. Here's a general guide:
AMD Radeon/PRO: Visit the to download and install the latest Radeon Software (Adrenalin Edition or Radeon PRO).
NVIDIA GeForce: Download and install the latest GeForce drivers from the or via the GeForce Experience application.
embedded GPUs like Intel Iris/ARC, AMD Ryzen, etc.: We recommend to stick with the vendor of your workstation or let Windows handle the installation and maintenance of such embedded GPUs.
Single Monitor: Simply connect your monitor to the appropriate port on your PC (usually HDMI or DisplayPort).
Multi-Monitor: Connect additional monitors to available ports on your GPU. Most modern GPUs support multiple monitors.
Windows 10:
Right-click on the desktop and select "Display Settings".
Under the "Multiple Displays" section, choose "Extend" to enable additional outputs.
Adjust resolution, orientation, and other display settings as needed.
Windows 11:
Go to Settings > System > Display.
Under "Multiple Displays", choose "Extend" to enable additional outputs.
Adjust resolution, orientation, and other display settings as needed.
While the process to configure settings differs among Intel Iris/ARC, AMD Radeon/Radeon PRO, and NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards, it's pivotal to remember that presets optimized for specific use cases, such as gaming or presentations, might not be ideal for high-performance video displays. To ensure optimal performance across various applications:
Resetting to Default: It’s often advisable to start by resetting your graphics settings to their default. This can rectify issues caused by configurations optimized for a specific task but detrimental to general performance.
Custom Configuration: After resetting, manually configure your settings based on your specific needs. Focus on adjusting resolution, refresh rate, and settings for video playback quality.
Following these steps should help you set up and optimize your onboard graphics card(s) for both single and multi-monitor configurations on Windows 10 and Windows 11.
