I have a Dell laptop, and the Intel/NVidia driver combo has been the buggiest part of the whole thing. Really irritating.

- mring33621 11y agoSame for my Asus laptop. Makes me wish for just one card. I know, I can always disable one of them...
- soylentcola 11y agoSame on my Asus. The problem is that forcing the nVidia GPU means hotter/more fan/faster battery drain while forcing Intel means...it uses the buggy Intel drivers. I'm not complaining too much if only because when I bought it, a 17" i7/16GB/nVidia/1920x1080 laptop for under a grand was a great deal of power for the cost (and it's only a backup machine for occasional use at events) but man...it's the one thing that's been a pain since I got the thing. Additionally I was bummed to learn that even with the dGPU forced on, it doesn't play well with my Oculus dev unit but I didn't know the requirements when I bought the notebook so that's just hindsight. Usually I just force the dGPU and leave it plugged in whenever humanly possible.
