Did you add these settings based on your testing or where they proposed?

We do have nvidia generation specific profiles that enable this setting.

We usually don't set this for laptops.

I think the nvidia module already does this?

| # - Hybrid graphics with HDMI output connected to NVIDIA GPU | ||

I think the nvidia module does this.

Don't think this is needed. It sounds more like personal preference.

So when you had this disabled, hdmi wouldn't work?

The way the Oryx Pro works is annoying, if the GPU is off (using integrated graphics only) it won't actually pass-through the ports attached to the GPU to the rest of the system. This is an issue with Pop! OS as well (external displays only work in hybrid/compute mode, and not on integrated mode).
