[HELP] I want to set nVidia as PRIMARY Graphics Card

[Shnxxx]

Hi guys, I'm having a problem. My laptop is a newly bought Acer E 15 i5-8250U with integrated Intel(R) UHD Graphics 620 and with Dedicated 2GB GDDR5 nVidia MX150. What I wan't to do is to set nVidia as a PRIMARY GRAPHICS CARD and not the intel one.

 

What I have already done is:

- Disabled Intel Graphics Card under Device Manager but It only turned my screen to a lower resolution so I enabled it back.

- Opened nVidia Control Panel and set PhysX processor to GeForce MX150 and under 'Manage 3D Setiings' I chose High-Performance NVIDIA processor under Global Settings. But I think it didn't work too because I can still see Intel as my graphics card in dxdiag and display adapter properties. 

- I also uninstalled all nvidia products and re-installed it but nothing happened. It just updated my nvidia driver.

- I also tried visiting BIOS but no success. I don't see any settings that's familiar on graphics card.

 

PLease help me

EDIT:

nVidia graphics card works when gaming but only in gaming, I want to use it all the time, as the title says, as my PRIMARY GRAPHICS CARD.

Your battery will drain more quickly if it uses the graphics card during idle-like loads.

There really is no point in using your dedicated graphics outside of games. Basic tasks will do fine on the integrated graphics.

Some apps uses my intel graphics and makes rendering crappy, like autodesk. It ignores my nvidia graphics card.

In the Nvidia Settings you can set the dedicated card to the autodesk.

This is impossible. The Intel IGPU controls your internal display and will always be the primary GPU. Just make sure you set the Nvidia card to be used in the software you need the extra power.
