So I installed the Garuda KDE Dr460nized on my laptop but I want to play some games and I don't really know how to switch to my NVIDIA gpu. In pop os I could just set NVIDIA graphics under the batery options and reboot. How do I do this in Garuda?
You run on Intel GPU by default, if you want to run programs, apps with NVIDIA you need use prime-run command.
Example:
prime-run darktable
prime-run gimp
If you want to run games in Steam, use launch options and write this:
prime-run %command%

Yeah this works but is there a way to do it globaly? Or is something that I don't want to do?
Maybe use alias.
alias dark='prime-run darktable'

You can also create desktop shortcut files to start the program and place the launchers wherever you want.

You can install optimus-manager-git and optimus-manager-qt-git from chaotic repo and set the gpu method to hybrid. That works for me
