GPU showing up as Printer/Device!?

[AllHokage]

So I noticed a little USB appear near my WiFi symbol the other day so I right clicked on it and it gave me the option to eject it!

So I'm wondering does anyone know what is going on here and how do I remove the dam thing?

Recent drivers allowed hotpluggable PCI-Express.

Is this for the new external graphics card hype?

Exactly what it is.

You could probably check your BIOS settings and check for a setting to disable Hotpluggable PCI-Express.

Far out, at least give the user the option to remove the icon...

The 'Eject GPU' item can be completely removed by going to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\nvlddmkm key in the Windows Registry and setting SurpriseRemovalSupport to 0, then rebooting.

These new drivers are also known to render some USB 3.0 ports on some motherboard unusable until you roll back.

Happened to me.
