[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1036660, member: 46727"] The link you gave.... those were implemented with the Boot Camp 3.1 update that was released several months ago. It took Apple quite some time to improve upon the drivers and power management. And I expect it will be another long period of time before auto switching of the GPU in Windows is supported. Assuming you have a new MBP 15" or 17" model..... You can do some testing yourself to determine which GPU is being used when in Windows: Boot to Windows 7, (using Boot Camp not a VM) and open Control Panel, System, Hardware. Expand the tree and see what it says for graphics. If it calls out the Intel HD, that's great. Regards. [/QUOTE]
