Does the gpu have a physical mux though?
I usually don’t even consider laptops with dedicated nvidia graphics because dealing with nvidia drivers is more hassle than gain (I don’t do anything gpu-intensive and the intel gpu is enough for me).
A physical mux means you can effectively shut down the dedicated graphics but still drive outputs with the intel embedded gpu. And save battery.
Can that laptop do that?
- jaykru 4y agoThe laptop I have does have a "MUX switch" but is controlled in software. As far as I understand, the benefits of the MUX switch are primarily to graphics performance when working with the discrete GPU. At any rate, my laptop (G14 2022) is all AMD and I haven't had any trouble with the amdgpu drivers on recent Linux kernels.
