You can use nvidia-prime to run on intel only right?

> run on intel only

How does that work on a Ryzen laptop?

The English doesn't (quite work), but Intel here refers to the integrated, power-thrifty GPU, so could be more pedantically stated as "run on integrated graphics chip and turn off the Nvidia discrete GPU (and save power)" instead.
I think you may have missed the point. It's Ryzen, meaning AMD, not Intel.
fragmede is saying that when aero-glide2 said "Intel" they were actually referring to the integrated GPU in the laptop in general. Of course there's no integrated Intel GPU in the Ryzen 9 4900 HS, but there is an integrated GPU (a Vega 8).
