Hello,
The short answer is no.
But if you wish, here are some details.
The desktop is composed of different windowed applications and the OS sends the computing of the pixels to the GPU, regardless of how your displays are connected.
In the case of DisplayLink, we then encode the content and ship it to the hardware video decoder in the docking station. Today, on your configuration, if you have an Intel iGPU on your i7, that encoding takes place on it too. If you don't, then the encoding is CPU based.
AMD, and nVidia GPU are scheduled for future releases.
DisplayLink driver doesn't compute graphics, we get from the OS which gave it to the GPU to do.
I'd recommend trying to have one monitor connected to the graphics card directly, and setting that monitor as main display. Does the behaviour change? I'd like to understand if you're affected by something being addressed currently...
Kind regards,
Alban
