Hello guys!

 

It's been 2 weeks since I have got my first laptop. I really wanted the alienware 15, and that's what I got, however there was no option to buy it without g-sync( at least in my country), finally im not too much dissapointed on battery life cause of it's huge 99WH battery :). But I still think that it's kind of a waste to have such battery for 4-5 hours. And I know I cannot have optimus because dedicated gpu is directly plugged to the screen bypassing integrated gpu and all that stuff. However I was asking myself if there was any physical intervention that can be done to plug the integrated gpu, and get somekind of mux switch like on some clevo laptops, where you can choose which gpu to use at launch in bios.

I don't know much of laptops and I'm afraid of warranty void if I open/touch something that I wasen't supposed to do. So I don't even know how it looks like inside, that's why i'm here, asking help for some expert guys who could enlighten me, even if the answer is just that nothing can be done(if possible with arguments to explain why, seems stupid but there is no reason to believe someone who doesn't give facts) :).

 

Thank you very much for reading me :).
