My motherboard is Hybrid SLI-capable, but as far as I waas aware nVidia dropped the feature after a certain driver release and my GTX 580 never had support for it. However, I decided to enable the integrated GPU in my BIOS (it's sole purpose is for Hybrid SLI as it has no video-out) to see if I could get some Optimus-like config going.
It's recognised in Device Manager (listed as NVIDIA nForce 980a/780a SLI), and is taking 512MB of my RAM. It's also listed in the nVidia Control Panel and I can use it for dedicated PhysX if I like (tho I doubt it, it's only an 8200 from what I know).
Basicaly what I want to know is, is it actually doing anything?
