Radeon Pro GPU usage in a MacBook Pro

Hello,

I opened up Activity Monitor and went to GPU history and this is what I got.

I was wondering if it is normal that the system doesn't use the Radeon GPU at all. If it is normal when is it used?

Thank you,

Gleb Koval

MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017), macOS High Sierra (10.13.4)

macbook pro 16 inch 2019 gpu not showing When I go to see the specs of my laptop, from the Apple symbol - About this Mac, the discrete GPU installed on this device does not show in the list under graphics. However, when I go into system report it shows that there is an AMD Radeon Pro 5500M GPU in the system. Is this something to worry about?

GPU memory almost at 100% all the time Hi, I have an MacBook Pro 16" 2019. The GPU is a Radeon Pro 5300M with 4GB of GDDR6 memory. When I run iStatMenu I see, that the memory is almost at 100 % all the time, even when I am just using Safari. I am however connected to an external display, can that be the reason, and of not; Is macOS not clearing the GPU memory or why is memory usage always so high?

Dedicated GPU not visible in "about mac" Hi!I run a 2017 MacBook Pro 15" with Touchbar featuring Radeon 555 2GB and 16GB of RAM. Originally when I got it, it would show the GPU specifications (both the Radeon 555 and the Intel integrated GPU) under the "About This Mac" menu, but now for some reason it has just vanished. Screenshot below: It still shows up under "System report -> Graphics/Displays".Anyone who has any idea why, and most importantly is it still in use (thinking I would suffer from huge performance drop with graphical applications otherwise)?
