Thank you! Was hoping to learn people are doing it.

I’m mainly interested in it having the Nvidia RTX 3050 6GB as mobile GPU for hw encoding and decoding and some CUDA.

Have you run into any problems with their fancy power modes or mixing onboard AMD graphics and the NVIDIA card?

Surprisingly it has been smooth. Power modes work as you would expect even across OSes. I always run the graphics mode in hybrid mode to I’m using the integrated chip 90% of the time until something really needs the 3050. In Gnome, you can explicitly launch an application using the dGPU or you can set the environment variables on the application shortcut to always use the dGPU.

That’s impressive. Perhaps AMD pushed good power features into the kernel. Great news. Hopefully the new one will work likewise.
