    I'm having issues with the game detecting the Nvidia 765, when hitting options and graphics, It only recognizes the Inter HD4000 and it's grayed out...

    Any idea how to resolve this?

    I'm pretty sure its running Path on the 765 even though it says otherwise. I had the same issue too, but the FPS on max settings is something the 4600 shouldn't be producing (I think?). I set to use the GPU on the control panel for Nvidia manually as well to be sure.

    If you find a way to be sure though, post it up. Be glad to get even more performance out in that game. :D

    It's the same on the RBP but the FPS is high on max settings and runs like a champ smooth game play and no issues. Not sure if the performance would really improve to a noticeable difference.

    I had the same doubts .. especially because some benchmark tools (e.g. OCCT) have an option for the 765M which does not work.
    Playing around with the "preferred GPU" setting didnt change a thing, but it seems like the only problem is that the 756M is deactivated when the game starts, but is getting used once the graphics is running.
    There is a tool that reads the GPU usage state: Optimus test tools finally in users hands - News - LaptopVideo2Go Forums

    Oh yea. Forgot to mention having the Nvidia GPU use notification thing in status bar will show POE being run by the 765m. So pretty sure its being used.
