AIUI they currently use a rather basic system on Windows that asks "is the Xbox game bar active?", and using that to switch off the low cache cores. I suspect if these sorts of chips become common we might get something a bit more nuanced.

It’s the same mechanism that triggers the game mode in Windows. You can tag a program in the Xbox game bar as a game if it hasn’t recognized it by default.
