Since it's very unlikely that Intel ported Adaptive Sync or VRR to their ancient IGP (and they are still at DP1.2, per their own block diagram, so no Adaptive Sync), this means this is still using a muxer.
I've noticed from using an eGPU dock with an external display, that Windows 10 / Nvidia / Intel handle hot undocking somewhat well-ish. Applications that use the GPU sometimes handle it well. I wonder if this is just further refining that, and if it will benefit eGPU users?
It is a mux, but it's a Nvidia supported dynamic mux that is a key part of their "Advanced Optimus". Hopefully it works as well as they're promising! Anandtech did an article about that feature specifically here: https://www.anandtech.com/show/15692/nvidia-detail...

This is not solely a gaming device is it ?
