the problems are:

blue screens very often.. no fix yet to be found
Some softwares fps stuck on 20fps or crashing and flashing. workaround: disableing Intel card solves it but well its temporary.
built in microphone is like talking in another room but signal is destroyed by bunch of UFO-s so kinda not acceptable..
Keyboard gets really used really quickly.. got mine in middle of january.. some keys markings have almost came off..
it really gets hot while gameing like unusabley hot.. or more like.. if i had some eggs on it then it would be fried eggs..

now when includeing all those issues i find i can't relie on laptop while doing work (VJ-ng and light
and spending 1,6k on it....

if anyone have some fixes for it.. im open for them all

You can use things like HWinfo to check temps, though obviously that's things like CPU and GPU temps, and not the temps your hands experience on the keyboard / chassis

What is the problem with dual graphics?

mm thanks for info..

but the problem with intel and nvidia working togheter.. mm every program on my laptop that outputs signal on seperate screen will crash as soon as mouse move over to second screen.. or when haveing it on main screen and moveing the view.. it wil start flashing white and 2 views will stay white.. as soon as i disable intel card everything works except monitor controls..

Have you tried using DDU to remove graphics drivers, and then performing a clean install of the latest Nvidia drivers?

FIX for flashing screens....

there is somekind of control center.. where u can set GPU Switch between MSHybrid and Discrete.. default it was MSHybrid which let acces to both GPU-s Intel and GTX1070.. but while setting it to Discrete it changed it so laptop reqonizes only one card which is GTX1070.. fixed my flashing screen issue.. and also fps drops.. so this was this magical thing

That's more of a workaround than a fix. A laptop is designed to run in hybrid mode as it saves battery enormously. The problem is likely driver incompatibility with either display or control center or both.
