Can't get Nvidia card working on my Optimus laptop

I would like to just use the Nvidia card on my laptop which has both intel and Nvidia. It has that extra horsepower and its just sitting while intel is taxing the system CPU and memory. I was able to get bumblebee enabled but when I tried to use it to run kwin it was very unstable. I couldn't type into text boxes and eventually everything locked up. That is the one thing I want to run as I don't do much gaming.

I think it would be fairly easy to set up but when I run xrandr --listproviders it only detects one card. I tried the xorg.conf setup NVidia says to use and I couldn't start the x server. If anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it. I've spent hours and hours trying to figure this out.
