So i just got my HP omen 15, using a gtx i660ti and a ryzen 7 processor, I wanna know if it's possible setting the 1660ti to be the main gpu ?

When I'm looking at the nvidia control panel, it says that my laptop screen is connected to my radeon graphics.
 
Solution
Look up "Nvidia Optimus Switching".

The system will turn off the GPU for non-intensive tasks to save power. If you load the system with a game or stress test (like FurMark, etc) the 1660Ti will kick in.

IF you want, you can manually disable optimus switching for specific programs.
