    The option is visible under "display" when you enter bios setup.

    Optimus (switchable graphics, to save power) has anywhere between 5-10% of performance overhead compared to running the display directly with the nvidia GPU.

    Sorry, I don't understand 100%. So using Optimus should have better results?

    Has anyone retrofitted the new Intel AX200 wifi 6 card into their Lenovo P52? Seems like it would be a cheap upgrade if it would work.

    Getting an interesting message about failed FW downgrade when booting.
    Possibly related but can’t seem to install Intel Management Engine Firmware - 10 [64] - V.12.0.35.1427

    Any ideas?

    Try standalone MEI FW updater PCH_H version from win-raid. First, make sure to run ME Analyzer script and check your bios and MEI version are reported correctly or not. For detailed info use MEIInfo from correct Intel platform tools listed or linked in win-raid website.
