Overwatch not accessing dGPU when Displaylink Hub plugged in

I was able to resolve my issue by upgrading to the latest version of Windows 10. After looking checking GPU load.

I found that task manager now supports showing GPU% per application. Microsoft added this just recently. I was running 1703 and the latest is now 1803. To check your version hit Windows + I to open up Windows Settings. Then go into System, then about. Version should be there under Windows Specifications.

We have an upgrade server that controls updates, but I was able to bypass that and upgrade to the latest with microsofts update tool found here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/soft...load/windows10

The update takes a while. After the update I loaded up blender and illustrator and task manager showed them both running on GPU 1 which is the Nvidia. I also noticed that the nvidia Display Icon now shows activity on the card which it did not do before.
