Anyway, with windowed applications, the composition of your desktop windows must be done by one or the other card with all the copies of data described by Michael's article. Mux cannot switch outputs through the sending of a frame to the screen, like one window would be sent from one card and another from another card.

And you can switch between outputs only in BIOS at boot time, not in your OS. It can be used to get Nvidia outputs out (instead of Intel) if you, for instance, have stereoscopic glasses and need to have controlled them by Nvidia directly.

What's the point of the iGPU if you can't switch outputs on the fly? Are you sure of this?## VGA ##
