Windows 10: windows 11 interface stuttering surface book 2

my surface is extremely slow when using windows 11 interface, in task manager it shows that its using more then 65% of the available integrated graphics when im just moving a window around on the desktop, everything else is normal but the animations and the experience overall on win11 is bad.. i tried to make window manger use the dedicated gtx1060 but it is still using the integrated one, i know that the display is connected to the integrated graphics and that its much more power efficient to run windows on integrated graphics but is there a way to make it not stuttery by changing some settin

:)

 

Surface book 2 stuttering in everything. (Solved)

Hi,

I recently got a surface book 2 15". and discovered when gaming and during general tasks my surface book stutters. in a game this would look like intermittent lag, around every few mins the game would freeze temporarily for around half a second, it can be
seen on GPU usage that when these stutters occur, the GPU usage goes from whatever it was to 0 until the stutter is over returning to its original usage. It can also be seen in regular usage with the mouse cursor freezing like the games for around half a second
regularly.

Overall I'm pretty disappointed with my experience with the surface book 2, with it costing so much money you would have thought they would have ironed out all the kinks.

Hopefully, there is a fix that is software based but I would be fine getting a replacement.

many thanks,

-Giles
