Selecting Dedicated GPU in Windows for RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9

How can I make sure RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9 are using the dedicated graphics card in my computer?


Answer:

To make sure RFEM 6 and RSTAB 9 are using the dedicated graphics card in a system, go to the following Windows setting. This will work for either Windows 10 or 11.

1. Go to Start and then Settings.

2. Then, go to Display.

3. Next, scroll down to Graphics.

4. Search for RFEM 6 or RSTAB 9. If this is not detected, browse for it in the system.

5. Lastly, click on Options and select the desired GPU.

This should also be set in the subsequent graphics control panel whether you own an Nvidia or AMD GPU. This control panel will look something like what is shown in the image below.

Important

You will have to specify the settings as described above for every main version of the program. For example, when changing from RFEM 6.07.xxxx to RFEM 6.08.xxxx.
