How to Configure a Predator Notebook so the RTX Series GPU is Optimized for Graphic Applications - Acer Community
<main> <article class="userContent"> <p>Some notebooks can be configured so the discrete GPU is the only device used for all graphic application. This feature is also referred to as a mux (Multiplexer) switch and it must be configured for gaming and non-gaming modes.</p><p>The Predator notebooks listed below support Dynamic Display Switching (DDS) technology that automatically determines when the performance of the discrete NVIDIA GPU is needed. These models also include MUX switch hardware, but switch between the discrete and integrated GPUs automatically, without the need for any configuration changes.</p><div class="embedExternal embedImage display-medium float-none"> <div class="embedExternal-content"> <a class="embedImage-link" href="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029997/uploads/Y7I8NI3J6KLA/image.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener ugc" target="_blank"> <img class="embedImage-img" src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029997/uploads/Y7I8NI3J6KLA/image.png" alt="Mux Switch.png" height="180" width="320" loading="lazy" data-display-size="medium" data-float="none"></img></a> </div> </div> <p><br></p><p><strong>Dynamic Display Switching </strong>is only currently provided on the following notebooks.</p><ul><li>PH315-55 with RTX3060 / 3070 / 3070Ti GPUs </li><li>PH317-56 with RTX3060 / 3070 / 3070Ti GPUs </li><li>PT516-52S with RTX 3070 / 3070Ti / 3080Ti GPUs</li><li>PT316-51S with RTX3060 / 3070 / 3070Ti GPUs </li></ul><p> <strong>Note: </strong>DDS is not externally supported when using a USB Type C port to Display Port adapter.
