Disabling Nvidia Graphics card? Dell inspiron 7567

[at170]

Hi everybody,

I am currently using dell inspiron 7567 and external monitor ultra-sharp. I connect my laptop to the external monitor and choose mode "show only second monitor". However, in this mode, my laptop uses nvidia graphics card which makes my laptop and ssd very hot and run out of battery very fast. Therefore, I want to disable nvidia graphics card and use integrated graphics card. And just enable it when I play hard video games. Any idea to do that? Thank you.

go to device manager(right click on windows icon for quick way to open it), then just click display adapters, right click on the graphics card name, disable device. done as simple as that, activate should have same process
