OK, I have a Qosmio x870 laptop and I want it to use the NVIDIA graphics card at all times.
I don't care about power consumption since I always use my laptop plugged in.
Optimus is a great idea by NVIDIA, but they should have made an option to disable it.
I'm using Windows 8. I looked it up and I was able to access the UEFI, however, I could not find any options that had to do with graphics card. I also tried disabling Intel integrated graphics in the device manager, but it just ended up switching to Microsoft Basic Display Driver instead of the NVIDIA GPU.
Any help would be much appreciated.
