Nope. You cheat yourself.

Nvidia is using Optimus Technology, play a game and it will automatically switch to the Nvidia card. (Although there are ways to manual switch it on applications)

Even AMD also uses the same lame technology. Having said that, I prefer the manual hard select method

Read more here if keen.

Check device manager and see how many devices appear under "Display Adapters"
