Hi,
I've purchased a laptop (MSI GE70-2PE) with a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M dedicated GPU. Just to clarify, do i need the Optimus or the Bumblebee driver for this Nvidia GPU?
Thanks!

Hi Nomko,
It appears from the specs on that laptop that no integrated graphics are present so it looks like you will want the Optimus driver.
Cheers!

Not correct:
Graphic device:
1) onboard/integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600 GPU
2) NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M 2048 MB
The Intel is an integrated GPU. My system is a hybrid system.
Correct:
Yes, i need the Optimus driver. I foudn a solution which works very well:
