我们都使用网络浏览器来满足我们的日常计算需求。不管它们看起来多么简单，但它们非常复杂，并且在后台执行了很多工作。其中一项任务是在您的计算机屏幕上呈现内容。渲染页面是一项图形密集型任务，它会消耗您计算机上的大量资源。您可能已经注意到Edge或Chrome在^(Chrome)任务管理^{(Task Manager)}器中占用了大量资源。在这篇文章中，我们讨论了如何为Microsoft Edge 浏览器^{(Microsoft Edge browser)}启用高性能 GPU^{(enable high-performance GPU)} ，以便它可以利用可用的最佳性能。

为Edge浏览器启用高性能GPU

有两种类型的GPU，一种与您的计算机主板集成，另一种由您或制造商稍后安装。集成GPU^(GPUs)很好，可以很好地完成日常任务。但考虑到现代网站的复杂性，浏览器不能依赖集成的GPU。另一方面，第二个GPU功能更强、性能更强，但功耗更高。因此，如果您可以使用较少的备用电池，但希望获得最佳浏览器性能，您可以按照以下步骤为Microsoft Edge启用高性能GPU。

此功能可让您控制应用程序使用的GPU 。使用此功能，我们将为Microsoft Edge设置高性能GPU。

对于 Microsoft Edge 铬

• 打开设置
• 点击打开系统
• 从左侧选择显示
• 向下滚动并单击图形^(Graphics) 设置^(Settings)
• 在选择^(Choose)和应用下，从下拉列表中选择桌面^(Desktop)应用
• 浏览到 Edge Program 文件夹。
• 它是 C:Program Files (x86)MicrosoftEdgeApplication
• 选择 msedge.exe
• 现在根据您的选择设置其选项：
  • 让 Windows 决定
  • 省电
  • 高性能。

保存并退出。

对于Microsoft Edge 旧版通用^{(Microsoft Edge Legacy Universal)}应用

第 1 步：打开设置^(Settings)。导航到系统^(System)，然后显示^(Display)。

第 2 步：向下滚动并单击图形^(Graphics) 设置^(Settings)。

第 3 步：现在您需要选择一个应用程序来设置首选项。从下拉菜单中选择Universal App，因为Microsoft Edge是Windows Universal App。

第 4 步：现在在第二个下拉列表中选择Microsoft Edge，然后单击添加。^(Add.)

第 5 步：将Edge添加到列表后，您可以通过单击与其对应的选项按钮来设置您的偏好。^(Options)默认情况下，图形首选项应为System default。

有三个选项：

1. 系统默认
2. 省电
3. 高性能。

该对话框还将显示计算机上可用的省电^(Power)和高性能 GPU的名称。^{(High-performance GPU)}就我而言，我有一个集成的Intel HD Graphics 630和一个高性能的 NVIDIA GTX 1050^{(High-performance NVIDIA GTX 1050)} Ti。因此，在此对话框中选择高性能^{(High performance)}并单击保存。^(Save.)

第 6 步：如果您还没有重新启动 Edge 。^{(Restart Edge)}

最后的话

验证Edge是否使用外部GPU的一种方法是使用显卡随附的软件。例如，如果您使用的是Nvidia GPU，那么您的 PC 必须安装Nvidia GPU Activity或任何其他类似的工具。您通常可以从系统托盘访问它们，它会显示正在使用此GPU的程序列表。从这里，您可以验证Edge是否正在使用此GPU。

非常相似，您可以为任何其他应用程序设置不同的 GPU^{(set a different GPU for any other application)}。高性能GPU有其自身的优点和权衡，它可以为您提供更好的性能，但同时消耗更多的功率。因此，您可能不想在使用电池时使用它。如果是这种情况，您可以轻松切换回省电^{(Power saving )}GPU。

更好的浏览器性能意味着更快的响应速度、更短的加载时间和更少的崩溃频率。如果您正在寻找所有这些，请继续进行这些更改，并且不要忘记在下面的评论中分享结果。

How to enable high-performance GPU for Microsoft Edge browser

We all use web browsers for our day to day сomрuting requirements. However ѕimple they may seem but are very complex and are performing a lot of stuff under the hoоd. Оne such task is rendering the content on your computer’s sсreen. Rendering pаges іs a graphics-intensive task, and іt consumes a lot of resources on your соmputer. You might have already noticed Edge or Chrome taking up a lot of resources in the Task Manager. In this post, we have discussed how to enable high-performance GPU for Microsoft Edge browser so that it can leverage the best performance available.

Enable high-performance GPU for Edge browser

There are two types of GPU, one that came integrated with the motherboard of your computer and the second which was either installed by you or by the manufacturer later. Integrated GPUs are just fine and do well for normal day to day tasks. But given the complexity of modern websites, browsers just cannot rely on the integrated GPU. On the other side, the second GPU is more capable and performant but consumes more power. So, if you are okay with lesser battery backup but you want optimum browser performance, you can follow these steps to enable high-performance GPU for Microsoft Edge.

This feature lets you control what GPU is used by an application. Using this feature, we will set high-performance GPU for Microsoft Edge.

For Microsoft Edge Chromium

• Open Settings
• Click open System
• Select Display from the left side
• Scroll down and click on Graphics Settings
• Under Choose and app, from the drop-down, select Desktop app
• Browse to the Edge Program folder.
• It is C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application
• Select msedge.exe
• Now set its options as per your choice:
  • Let Windows decide
  • Power saving
  • High performance.

Save and exit.

For Microsoft Edge Legacy Universal app

Step 1: Open Settings. Navigate to System, then Display.

Step 2: Scroll down and click on Graphics Settings.

Step 3: Now you need to choose an application to set preference. From the drop-down menu select Universal App as Microsoft Edge is a Windows Universal App.

Step 4: Now in the second drop-down select Microsoft Edge and click Add.

Step 5: Once Edge has been added to list, you can set your preference by clicking the Options button corresponding to it. By default, the graphics preference should be System default.

There are three options:

1. System default
2. Power saving
3. High performance.

The dialog will also display the names of Power saving and High-performance GPU available on your computer. In my case, I have an integrated Intel HD Graphics 630 and a High-performance NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti. So, on this dialog select High performance and click on Save.

Step 6: Restart Edge if you haven’t already.

Final words

A way of verifying whether Edge is using your external GPU is by using the software that came with the graphics card. For instance, if you are using Nvidia GPU, then your PC must have Nvidia GPU Activity or any other similar tool install. You can usually access them from the system tray, and it would display the list of programs that are using this GPU. From here, you can verify whether Edge is using this GPU or not.

Very similarly you can set a different GPU for any other application. High-performance GPU has its own perks and trade-offs, it can give you better performance but consume more power at the same time. So, you might not want to use it when you are on battery. If that is the case, you can easily switch back to Power saving GPU.

Better performance for a browser means more responsiveness, lesser loading times and less frequent crashes. If you are looking for all of these, go ahead and make these changes and do not forget to share the results in the comments down below.
