As per title, though this can't be duplicated as it appears completely random. Sometimes if I boot the system from a cold state, it won't load into my 7900XTX and load the radeon integrated GPU instead, then it may take 1 to 3 reboots to get it back. When the system is running off the primary GPU and I need to reboot for, say, software or driver install, it'll load the integrated GPU instead, resulting in additional reboots to get it back.
I do not know if this is an issue with Win 11 or the hardware. As stated, it's not something I can just duplicate. When it does happen, there is no trace of the 7900XTX even listed, as it's not in device manager.
My question, should it happen again, is there something I can do in Win 11 that might give clues as to it being a Win 11 or hardware issue that anyone knows of?
Also, how is the system able to run off the integrated GPU when it is connected to the primary GPU? How is the integrated GPU routed through the system, then through the primary GPU?

- I accidentally clipped a turtle on a gravel road with my truck. I set it off to the side of the road next to a stream seeing how bad it was hurt, nothing was going to save it. I still feel bad about it.
