my laptop has nvidia optimusIt might be a bit out of scope to ask, but it seems to me according to their own support (Alienware is Dell)
That Nvidia Optimus should be available on non gsync model. With your knownledge, does it seem to you that I understand it wrong, or there could be some models that dont have gsync, support Nvidia Optimus and Optimus by definition requires monitor to go through IGPU
<---
i used to use a ssdt file to disable the nvidia
then i had to mod the bios to update the microcode otherwise high Sierra and later OS wouldn't install
whilst in there, i was able to disable the nvidia card
my hdmi port is routed through the intel graphics so i can still use the hdmi and also the mini dp port as well
you could extract or download your bios file from dell website and open it up with the attached file and there may be a way to disable nvidia, but if it is hardware limitations for your lcd and nvidia etc, then it may not be possible to disable the nvidia
this is probably the drawback of trying to use a gaming machine for hackintosh
