Hi!

My NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M and I use Gswitch for "integrated only".

What options can I use in "advanced panel" to avoid the system sometymes going into discrete gpu (getgpu set, gpuState, features)? I don't use external dislays but sometimes I see graphic artifacts.

Thank you!

gSwitch cannot prevent your discrete gpu from being accessed. gSwitch just tries to switch back to the integrated gpu as fast as possible.

However, if your discrete gpu is defective you can disable it by doing something like this: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/166876/macbook-pro-how-to-disable-discrete-gpu-permanently-from-efi/285896#285896
