Intelligent cooling

The Intelligent Cooling feature helps you adjust power consumption, fan speed, computer temperature, and
performance.
Note: For models with discrete GPU, the appropriate GPU will be used based on the Intelligent Cooling
mode. If the mode is switched while an app is running, the app might restart to ensure that the appropriate
GPU is used. If you have specified the exact GPU to run for each app in the Windows Settings, it will take
precedence.
