I have black screen with new GTX680. If I use also HD4000 then I see everyting. OS found new graphic card and I install last drivers but when I press atl+F7 to swich for GTX680 after restart all what I see is black screen. What should I do? Flash VBIOS or what?

lonerMAC, is the 680m still going to black screen with the new 240w power supply?

Yes. With integrated HD4000 no, but after I switch integrated HD4000 off then I have black screen. Windows working good because I hear skype login sound but screen is black. I also can press FN+F7 to swich back, but I cant use it with two graphics because then I have grained screen. So I have grained screen when I using Integrated and Dedicated graphics and black screen when I using only Dedicated graphic card

If I want to use GTX680M I must have 120Hz display on my laptop? Because I have 60Hz. That's why I have black screen if I use GTX680M only? (with disabled optimus and HD4000)

No you're not. My system run on stock 60 Hz on screen and also with the Optimus system disabled. Never had a problem on Display since I installed 680m for replacing my 6990m......
