Help with 2011 17” MacBook Pro GPU disabling

Hello,

I am doing a fun (for me at least!) project of restoring and upgrading a 2011 17” MacBook Pro with matte display. It will have 16GB RAM, and a Samsung SSD. I am planning on installing macOS Monterey, as I’ve heard it’s the best on the pre-metal MacBooks. I would just like to ask, is there a feature built into OCLP to software disable the failure prone AMD GPU? I’ve heard there is, but I would just like more info. Thanks!
