I have a Lenovo X1 Extreme device with two graphics cards
> lspci | grep -e VGA -e 3D
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 630 (Mobile)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU117M [GeForce GTX 1650 Mobile / Max-Q] (rev a1)
On which i am trying to connect two external samsung monitors. The first monitor is connected via HDMI directly to the laptop, the other is connected to one of the USBC ports through an HDMI->USBC cable.
The monitor connected to the HDMI port works well. However, the one connected to the USBC port via the adapter cable reports "Not optimum mode, recommended mode is 1920×1080 60Hz". I switched the setup to make sure that both monitors work individually and they do.
Here’s what xrandr reports:

The way my laptop is setup is that i have the official nvidia driver installed. However, i don’t have xf86-video-intel driver. I have the following script that lightdm runs on startup:
xrandr --setprovideroutputsource modesetting NVIDIA-0
xrandr --auto
What do i have to do in order to have both monitors work? what is the problem to begin with? i am not exactly sure what the problem is therefore, i don’t know if there’s anything i can change to fix this issue.
Help would be very much appreciated.
It seems like my BIOS setting had display on "Hybrid". After switching this to "Discrete", both monitors now work without issues.
