A little extra info on it;

Disabling my iGPU allows me to completely kill all latency caused by DisplayLink.

Thus, relying on my GeForce 980M instead of my Intel HD 530.

It still uses a lot of CPU power, and it consumes 10% of the GPU
But everything works fine.

Maybe look into a settings window where a user could pick what GPU it runs on? I'm not that farmilar with what access the new driver system has for you guys.

Another notable issue;

When the main monitor is set to DisplayLink in a system with more than one GPU and relies on Nvidia Optimus, DisplayLink actually somehow manages to completely disable Optimus. This means even if things are set to dGPU, they run on whatever WDFHost is on.

Setting my main monitor to hard wired fixed the issue entirely.
