Hi.
I used LM18 Cinnamon and had a panel applet to switch from one card to another on my laptop with hybrid video card.
Now I choose to install Mate DE and I don't know where can I find some "switcher".
I installed NVIDIA drivers.
Thanks in advance.

The nvidia-prime-applet is already installed. If your laptop supports Nvidia’s Optimus technology, then the applet should be visible in the System Tray area of the panel. If it’s not, then go to Preferences > Startup Applications and see if the checkbox next to Support for NVIDIA Prime is marked.
After selecting the GPU, you will have to reboot. In Mint 18, you could log out and back in.
