    Alright, does anyone here have intel + pascal and the most up to date windows version without it lagging when opening firefox or rightclicking the desktop? There is apaprently an optimus + MSHyrbid bug going on that I wish to fix, so I need a system that is up 2 date without the bug so that I can figure out what is broken.

    If so I'd like to know a couple of things:
    - What notebook are you using.
    - What driver version are you using?

    Look at MS surface forums and even Dell's 2 in 1 sections as well, Most of them have similar problems and MS/nvidia are blaming each other.

    I'd like to contribute, but I intentionally refused to update when I heard about this a few months back.
    Hope they finally figure out what is going on.

    @Danishblunt Try the desktop nvidia driver package, it seems the desktop package actually allows notebook gpu to overvolt and strange stutter is reduced and all benchmarks seems to have gained 10-15% more performance.

    How is that even possible? Aren't notebook and desktop drivers on Pascal supposed to have no differences in perfomance?
