Hi,

I'm hoping to replace the i5 CPU from my laptop (L401X) with an i7 which
doesn't feature an integrated GPU. Will doing this in a sense disable
Optimus (if Intel GPU doesn't exist push everything through the nVidia
chip), or will this cause more headaches than it's worth. If anyone else
has taken a similar route with their Optimus powered laptop I'd be very
interested in hearing your experiences.

Thanks,

- Josh
