Hi all just received the new Razer Blade 256gb. Wonderful machine but I am experiencing a few issues. Firstly the Nvidia Control panel yields only 3 options rather than showing me the usual display options I see on my desktop comp that has a Nvidia GPU. The only 3 options I see are "adjust image settings with preview", "Manage 3d settings", and "set PhysX configuration". I am wondering if this is a driver issue or if I am just missing an option to allow the NVidia control panel to unlock.
Also I have been playing Diablo 3 at 1080p resolution and getting 30-45 frames at max settings - I think the intel HD built in graphics are interfering with the dedicated GPU. How can I control this so the intel graphics step aside and allow the 870m to do its job?
Thanks!

I did not think turning on V-sync would help, but it brought my FPS up from 25-40 to 60 (mostly) solid. That is strange, maybe it's a driver issue? -
oh and enjoy hearing the fans more now that your gpu will be working harder. Fans kick on full blast at native resolution with vsync on... and diablo isn't that demanding of a game... another reason I think there may be a driver issue. -
Diablo 3 is hell on mobile GPUs, on my Lenovo Y510P it would drive the main GPU to 80+ and the ultrabay GPU to 97C at 1080P.

Thanks for all the replies, they solved all the issues. Glad to hear nothing is wrong with my NVidia control panel, thanks Wing. I also turned on vsync this morning and played D3 ROS again - capped at 60 fps no matter how intense the situation gets.
Thanks again everyone. -
Do you guys use cooling pads?

Thanks! I got mine last night and I guess I'm a bit nervous because it's my first computer for gaming and I don't want to break it lol
I'll probably have more stupid questions -

Thanks again for the feedback, I guess cooling pads are more peace of mind than anything lol
