That's not the point, but we've always had tearing issue reports with nvidia boards and recently got some for intel.
Now, if all those intel reporters actually use optimus, that smells suspicious to me ;-)

How's the HDMI chip wired? Connected to the nvidia chip or to the intel one (where the nvidia one copies the framebuffer)?

However the much more relevant question is whether the non swapping sync works with the internal screen.
