Disable intel graphics on MacBook pro

[Rezoic]

Hello,

 

I have a MacBook pro, but want to disable the intel graphics and only use my Radeon pro 560x, how do I disable it. I have turned off automatic graphics switching but I still think it uses the intel graphics by how laggy the screen can be, is there a way I can disable it in terminal? Thank you

The internal display is probably wired to the integrated graphics. A standard process for almost any device with an iGPU and dGPU with a few exceptions. So more than likely if you disable the iGPU, you'll lose the internal display.
