Newbie Q: which card is Rhino using?

Hi experts. I’m a architecture student using Rhino 5 and grasshopper. No much knowledge in hardware stuff.

My question if anyone can clarify:

  1. I have 2 graphic cards installed in my Dell precision 7500.

A) Nvidia quadro 4000
B) Nvidia gtx 760

The latter was bought recently 'cause I was given a 30" monitor and thought I need a separate one to drive the huge screen. Which one of these is being use by Rhino for modeling? And for rendering? Can I assign Rhino to use the Quadro card exclusively?

My apologies if this question sounds obvious or silly for this forum. Totally a noob in this kinda thing.

You can see which video card you use in the options > View > OpenGL if I’m right. :

Thank you so much for that. In my PC , Rhino is registering the the Quadro instead of the GTX. I was wondering why Rhino pick the Quadro over the GTX.

Well Rhino uses the video card that Nvidia assigns too it.

Look at this website:

here you can change your videocard. Example is a video game but the idea would be the same.

That make sense. I will play around with the setting at Nvidia control panel. Even tho’ gtx is faster I found Rhino on quadro is smooth as silk, I’m happy with that.

Thank you so much for the clarification.
