1 GPU for scene view and another for Game View - at the same time?

[newguy123]

Hi Guys

If I have multiple GPU in my system, can I choose which is used for scene view and which is used for game view?

Alternatively, can I choose which is used for both?

Hey, Windows lets you pick which GPU an application can use:

Unity won’t let you choose, per camera, which GPU is used, however.

THIS IS NOT SUPPORTED, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

You could imagine an extremely hacky and extremely unrecommended scenario where you use symbolic links and run several instances of the same project with 2 Unity .EXE pointing to different GPU:

Can we add a button or a toggle to disable scene view (blank screen) when we enter play mode? I hate alt tabing (game takes cursor and hides it as it is FPS game) to close it to save performance.
