trying mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300 returns this:

I tried to follow this tutorial: [HowTo] Set up PRIME (output offload) with NVIDIA proprietary driver but got stuck when it comes to the installation of the nonfree driver version.
The funny thing is, my Hardware Configuration just offers to "Auto Install Open-Source Driver".
So right now i am quite clueless what i should try next, installing external downloaded drivers was not recommended in some threads.
Is there by the way a tool that monitors the GPU activity? Found a Plasmawidget, but that thingy didnt work for me.
i am thankfull for any kind of help,
so cheers and kind regards,
stryz
