Laptops are a bit different because of the nvidia optimus functionality to use the intel gpu unless a workload of sufficient complexity comes along to require the additional horsepower. </div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div><div class="h5">On Mon, Mar 16, 2015 at 12:25 PM, Michael Butash <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:michael@butash.net" target="_blank">michael@butash.net</a>></span> wrote:<br></div></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div class="h5">

<div>Correct, even anything since the Core
line of intel's have come with (crappy) gpu's on them in the cpu
die, for better or usually worse.<br>
<br>
Intel's usually cause more harm than good sadly, thus disabling
them occasionally helps if your browser is trying to offload gpu
function to a chronically dysfunctional gpu (or driver).<span><font color="#888888"><br>

kind of system are you using, Mike? Even if you don’t have
a desktop PC with a high-powered Nvidia or Radeon GPU card
plugged into the motherboard, your system will have some
type of GPU. If you don’t have an add-on card, it will
probably be provided by a (usually weak) on-board Intel HD
type of GPU.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
