Heres the original post on Nvidia Forums. So how do we go about setting this up? Lets go over the first part, Using the Nvidia as the primary card I will be following these instructions for the most part. If your on the go, the best way is to do use the AMD Vega 10 with Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti as an GL/Vulkan offload card but that disables the USB-C DP Port or you can use the Nvidia card as the primary card for everything which enables the USB-C DP. So, here is the new thing that saves battery and allows the laptop to sleep! There is a new way to operate the GPUs.

But its mostly just adding the graphics PPA and installing nvidia-utils-440 Once you follow the instructions and the driver as well as the xserver settings is installed go on to the next step. You will need to install the Nvidia GPU driver if you do not have it already! The instructions change sometimes so I suggest doing a search on it. Nouveau.modeset=0 tpm_tis.interrupts=0 acpi_osi=Linux i915.preliminary_hw_support=1 idle=nomwait I suggest putting the following in the /etc/default/grub after the word splash Sudo apt-get install -reinstall git dkms build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)įor the Kernel config.

In my case, Ubuntu works better than Windows now. I would recommend Ubuntu 20.04 since it uses Kernel 5.4, Has pre-installed drivers, and its LTS.īattery life is better than most (prob.

If you are thinking about buying this laptop for ANY GNU/Linux use DONT! (unless your okay with some compromise) There are better laptop options for maybe only $200 more. I hope we can continue to make Asus ROG laptops more Linux friendly since they are great for the price. I worked very hard on this so please leave a thank you if this helped. I have improved battery life, fixed sensor and the infamous 400 Mhz throttle, improved functionality, and increased the system's performance overall. After almost a year of owning my laptop I have come up with much better ways of using it.
