How to Configure a Predator Notebook so the RTX Series GPU is Used for All 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.</p><p>A MUX switch allows you to manually enable or disable the integrated GPU. Many Predator notebooks made in 2022 have added this chip to modify the connection between the discrete GPU, the integrated GPU and the display.
