      I'd recommend you to use nvidia-prime instead.
      To work with office use intel - battery saving
      To use hardware accelerated video use nvidia - increase performance.

        I don't think you can do that switching on the fly though - the nvidia will always run in the background consuming a certain amount of power.

        I really regret buying an optimus laptop.

            Very good operating system.

            First thing to install is Ubuntu Restricted Extras. Then it depends what you use your computer for.
