Spent the weekend playing various intensive Steam games on my Framework Laptop 16 - dGPU switching just magically happens when you launch a game - no DRI_PRIME needed on Framework Laptop AMD images of Bazzite. And they're just getting warmed up. https://bazzite.gg

Also, on my Framework Laptop 13 running Bluefin - look to the upper left corner at the launcher. Yeah, and Bluefin is just warming up.

@matthartley how can I tell which GPU is used?

@DJGummikuh On Bazzite (at least on KDE), you will want to install Mission Center, maximize, then watch your GPU(s) for activity. When you launch a Steam game, VGA switcheroo does it's magic. On Bluefin, Mission Center is pre-installed. Alt-tab out of the game will allow you to see which GPU is active - but out of the box, the fact that Helldivers 2 runs full screen, almost maxed out, is an indicator of dGPU usage. ;)
