Q: Any possibility using only the integrated GPU ?
Mac OS X 10.11.6
MacBook Pro（Retina，15 "，2015 mid）
With a dedicated AMD Graphic cards
I'm wondering that if it is possible to use only the integrated GPU while playing games. Cause I found out that some games are no need to use the AMD GPU, but it automatically switched to the dedicated GPU and drains the battery.
Hope there is a solution to solve this problem. Thanks !
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.6), null

There is somewhat of a conditional scenario suggested in this article
on how to make certain graphic settings may remain in use, here:
• Set graphics performance on MacBook Pro - Apple Support
• MacBook Pro: How to determine which graphics processor is in use - Apple Support
{These links appear to show older hardware versions than your model.}
Not sure if there is a way hidden within the system to change the default to
stay on the one you wish to be first choice; perhaps in 'terminal' command?
In any event...
Good luck in this matter!
