High end laptops like Dell XPS has dedicated graphic cards that tend to drain the battery quickly while doing heavy multi-tasking or gaming. In this post we're talking about Dell XPS notebook which is a very good gaming machine with 2GB NVIDIA GPU. During normal operation, the NVIDIA optimus technology keeps the GPU in off state so that the battery will be saved. However the XPS holds a good battery, its not up to mark for gaming as the battery will quickly discharge when high end games are running.

Games not Detecting NVIDIA in Dell XPS - Solution
Few games like GTA IV, may not detect the installed drivers of your NVIDIA graphics card. When you start the game, it'll show the intel integrated graphics as the only resource with 59MB video memory while actually you have the NVIDIA GT -540M /525 M with dedicated 2 GB/ 1GB video memory . I've faced this problem on my dell XPS 15, while playing GTA 4, certainly it's very disappointing to stay with crappy graphics in a gaming laptop like XPS.
