One power hungry / hot one for gaming, one low-power / cool one for when not gaming.

From my experience with Optimus in the past: The system includes two GPUs, one that sucks for gaming and another one that also sucks for gaming :)

It's probably beter nowadays, but I will never consider it again.

But from two different manufacturers?

That's asking for trouble with driver issues.

Normally the low power gpu is the integrated Intel one that's on all their consumer chips, so it's more adding one gpu than slapping in competing ones. Although it does cause driver issues anyway, hence the thread.
