: Under Config > Display , you can switch between Hybrid Graphics (for battery saving) and Discrete Graphics (for maximum performance in CAD/rendering).
| Setting | Effect | Recommendation | |---------|--------|----------------| | | Uses only NVIDIA dGPU; adds 5-15W idle power. | Use only for CUDA/ML workloads or multi-4K external monitors. | | VMD Controller | Disabled = better Linux NVMe performance; Enabled = hot-swap support. | Disable for single-drive Linux setups. | | Intel SpeedStep + Speed Shift | Should remain Enabled (OS manages P-states). | Leave default. | | Hyper-Threading | Can be disabled for security (e.g., L1TF). | Keep Enabled for performance. | | VT-x / VT-d | Needed for VMs. | Enable if using Hyper-V, KVM, or WSL2. | | TCC Activation Offset | Hidden – controls throttling temperature offset (default 0 = 100°C throttling). | Do not change without active cooling mods. | lenovo p1 gen 4 bios
