    I have bought this notebook not knowing it's got 2 video cards an Intel HD and Nvidia 520MX 1Gb, the problem is that my win 7 64 bits doesn't recognize the Nvidia video card as primary so all games and other applications use the Intel HD.I have already installed the latest drivers from asus.com.Please help

    Go to nvidia's site and get the drivers from there. I had that problem too. (and don't look at your Windows Experience Index. My GPU works fine and it still says HD Graphics Family) NVIDIA Drivers And also, you have to restart your computer after installing drivers for them to actually work and refresh and stuff. If you install a driver then don't restart that thing you installed your driver for won't work.
