Most recent Macs have automatic graphics switching and now only intel GPU tasks are available. I want to know that is the intel GPU task still running when automatically switched to NVIDIA GPU or manually set only using NVIDIA GPU. |

I'm not sure about Macs, but in the PC world a task that starts on the Intel GPU will continue to run if you are using an Nvidia GPU to do something else. It is possible however to set options to stop this behaviour. Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

Thanks. After testing several tasks,I found Mac works the same way as PC. |
