Pime setup not working

Hi guys I got a new laptop and I'm busy setting up my Artix install, I am getting stuck with the prime setup. I have on board intel graphics and a nvidia RTX3060 card. When doing xrandr --listproviders I only get one provider. I'm using the open-source drivers (xf86-video-nouveau and xf86-video-intel) for the setup. I've tried fixing it a few times now with no success can anyone give me some advice please?
Code: [Select]
$ xrandr --listproviders
Providers: number : 1
Provider 0: id: 0x45 cap: 0xb, Source Output, Sink Output, Sink Offload crtcs: 4 outputs: 2 associated providers: 0 name:Intel

Code: [Select]
$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation CometLake-H GT2 [UHD Graphics] (rev 05)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GA106M [GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile / Max-Q] (rev a1)

@Artist Hi yes that is the page I'm following to try and set up PRIME, I checked and tried the 'XRandR specifies only 1 output provider' solution but nothing is working.

Honestly I just want to set up my graphics cards to work and be able to use my secondary screen as well, I tried setting up everything myself but I'm struggling. I have read trough and done the https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME and https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA and many other posts trying to fix my problems and nothing is working, I'm at my whits end and about two steps from giving up.
