You cannot force integrated only if you have an external display plugged in. You can force integrated only when you have dependent processes but it might crash those processes. If you change to dynamic switching or discrete only any process that was hungry will become dependent. A hungry process is one that wants to use the discrete gpu but is not allowed because you have set integrated only. What is a dependent process vs a hungry process?Ī dependent process is one that is currently using your discrete gpu. And since you plugged in the cable I’m assuming you want to use the display. Unfortunately your mac is designed such that in order to use an external display, it has to use the discrete graphics card. Why does the app go back to dynamic switching when a display is plugged in? ![]() The current gpu is also reported in the menu. Otherwise, it will just look like a gear. The gear will have a dot in the middle when the discrete gpu is active. You probably need to allow the application to run in Settings -> Security & Privacy You can also launch it from the terminal and set the desired setting using -integrated, -discrete, and -dynamic. You can also enable notifications for when your gpu changes (off by default) The app is simple to control with integrated only, discrete only, and dynamic switching in the menu. ![]()
