Abstract: User interactions with information handling systems can be improved by providing real-time feedback to the user during use of an application on the information handling system. Lighting effects may be defined for application events and those lighting effects executed to provide the user with visual feedback that notifies the user of the application events. In one example involving a computer game, a user playing a computer game on an information handling system may be playing a character with an associate health bar. The amount of health in the health bar may increase or decrease during gameplay, and a lighting effect may be used as feedback to indicate to the user the application events corresponding to the increase or decrease of the character's health.

Abstract: Systems and methods that may be implemented to orchestrate external graphics, for example to support and extend switchable graphics capability beyond internal system components of a host information handling system so as to include an external discrete graphics processing unit (xGPU) that is not integrated or embedded within the chassis enclosure of the host information handling system, and that is coupled to the host information handling system from outside the host system chassis enclosure.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for locally capturing the identity of the actual executable file required to set system configuration upon indirect launching of a computer game or other type of indirectly-launched file. Such a captured identity of an executable file may be added to a locally and dynamically created and updated local white list which then may be used to determine when to set the desired game mode configuration upon indirect launching of a game so that the desired game mode configuration may remain active for as long as the game is open and running, or for as long as the game is in-focus within an active window.
