Laptop with Built-in Iris Xe GPU and Externally Connected RTX 3060 eGPU
A user's task manager previously showed the correct name GPU1 for an NVIDIA RTX GPU. However, the GPU was externally connected via Thunderbolt, and it seems to have been incorrectly identified.
Built-in GPU: Iris Xe
The laptop comes with an integrated GPU, the Iris Xe. This GPU is built into the laptop's processor and is used for basic graphics tasks when the external GPU is not in use.
Externally Connected GPU: RTX 3060 eGPU
The RTX 3060 eGPU is connected to the laptop via Thunderbolt. This external GPU provides enhanced graphics capabilities when needed, and it should be correctly identified as GPU1 in the task manager.
Previously Incorrect Identification
Previously, the task manager showed the correct name GPU1 for an NVIDIA RTX GPU. However, it appears that the GPU was incorrectly identified, possibly due to the external connection via Thunderbolt.
