Is Optimus-Manager only for optimus laptops?

I have an Intel NUC box with discrete and Intel GPUs - I have come across Optimus-Manager and was wondering if it would work on the NUC box, or it is strictly only for optimums laptops? tbh I must admit I have never heard of an optimus laptop before haha!

Yes, it’s only for Optimus laptops–hence the name. :wink:

Thanks - yes I suspected as much, but I keep reading about it on various webpages…good to get it confirmed…never heard of that laptop before…not available down here I don’t think. Might have a look at the Bumblebee and Primus thing instead.

That is some pretty intense (for a relative newcomer) stuff to figure out - certainly a lot easier on windows (not saying windows is better mind, just saying its easier)…might have to wait I think on trying to get the system to run both cards as alternates!

Its not a specific laptop.

NVIDIA Optimus is a technology that allows an integrated GPU and discrete NVIDIA GPU to be built into and accessed by a laptop.

ahhhh, cool thanks cscs
