Hello.
Is there any way to precisely select and confirm to Illustrator 2025 (currently running on version 29.8.2.) which GPU to pick to process the graphics information?
I am running a quite performant laptop with a dedicated NVIDIA RTX Ada GPU with 16GB as well as an onboard graphics unit (with has way less power) but can't tell Illustrator to only use powerful GPU.
In Photoshop I can directly pick and assign the GPU to be used, for InDesign and Illstrator I can't find that option via the Menu Preferences > Performance. There, in the "GPU-Details" section it shows all 3 GPU-components my laptop has (see attached pic).
How do I manage to only utilize the powerful NVIDIA RTX GPU?
Thanks in advance,
