Hmm Okay what i have to screenshot? Devices manager or Nvidia app? Idk
What would u like to see? :)

Show display properties for the external monitor. It should show which graphics device is connected.

btw this mean i can use Nvidia GPU into the original monitor too?

No idea what you mean by "original monitor".

It depends on whether your Nvidia is attached to the internal display or not...
Your laptop screen may be connected to Intel HD530 (if you have it).
And the Nvidia may be attached to the HDMI port... eg. dual GPU (non-switched/non-routed, not Optimus).

You should also attach output from 'lspci -nn' in Linux Terminal.

Ill be glad to give you some informations! :D
How i can load linux terminal? I load it from windows or osx? I have to run linux terminal while i have hdmi plug in or in anyway moment?
 
The result of the command here
lspci -nn

You have both HD530 and the Nvidia. So, it is very unlikely that Nvidia can drive your laptop display.
Even having HDMI wired directly through the Nvidia is rare (most laptops are Optimus and go through the Intel part, even when using the Nvidia).

Hmm ok.
So Maybe i can use HDMI Nvidia for external monitor i Will do more checks. But i would like to know a thing.
Can i have a possibility to edit BIOS and add a function that Can make the Nvidia as default and Intel disabled or just make me using the Nvidia? I can try ... and share results :)

It is unlikely your BIOS has that option. You could certainly check...

It does not have (i only have Dvmt preallocated set to 64mb).
But i can make it? I mean If i can try a way to mod the BIOS and make that function, next it Will work with osx and load Nvidia as default? :)
Cause what i understood is that we need something to let us activate or disable what we want.. and we Can do it with the BIOS right? If Apple does not support Optimus we Can try making a BIOS feature?
