Hi, I noticed that there is an update for BIOS to F21 version for my HP omen on the website but the HP Diagnostics reported that it is up to date. So should I install it or not? And for the ones who did installed it, what are the pros and cons? And will it enable the graphics switcher on this update or not cause I do notice that the 2020 models does have the option while my 2021 max option model does not have it

Hi @Desmond_Lee.

Fantastic 🙂 I truly appreciate your time and patience in getting this issue resolved.  

 

However, the Advanced Optimus Click here and this should help.
