You did all wrong (almost). Run
sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
sudo apt-get purge bumblebee* primus
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-352 nvidia-prime
sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:bumblebee/stable
and hope that you did not spoil everything completely with previous attempts.

The answer above sudo apt-add-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa today results with:
Fresh drivers from upstream, currently shipping Nvidia.
## Current Status
We currently recommend: `nvidia-367`, Nvidia's current long lived branch.
For GeForce 8 and 9 series GPUs use `nvidia-340`
For GeForce 6 and 7 series GPUs use `nvidia-304`
nvidia-370 is the current BETA release!
## What we're working on right now:
- Normal driver updates
- Investigating how to bring this goodness to distro on a cadence.
## WARNINGS:
This PPA is currently in testing, you should be experienced with packaging before you dive in here. Give us a few days to sort out the kinks.
Volunteers welcome! See also: https://github.com/mamarley/nvidia-graphics-drivers/
### How you can help:
## Install PTS and benchmark your gear:
sudo apt-get install phoronix-test-suite
Run the benchmark:
phoronix-test-suite default-benchmark openarena xonotic tesseract gputest unigine-valley
and then say yes when it asks you to submit your results to openbechmarking.org. Then grab a cup of coffee, it takes a bit for the benchmarks to run. Depending on the version of Ubuntu you're using it might preferable for you to grabs PTS from upstream directly: http://www.phoronix-test-suite.com/?k=downloads
## Share your results with the community:
Post a link to your results (or any other feedback to): https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers-testers
Remember to rerun and resubmit the benchmarks after driver upgrades, this will allow us to gather a bunch of data on performance that we can share with everybody.
If you run into old documentation referring to other PPAs, you can help us by consolidating references to this PPA.
If someone wants to go ahead and start prototyping on `software-properties-gtk` on what the GUI should look like, please start hacking!

Be advised there are instructions on Nvidia site about disadvantages of upgrading Debian (which Ubuntu is based on) versus clean install.
Also be advised Nvidia website might have special instructions for Haswell, however their current drivers use the same one from my lowly GT650M up to OP's GT760M but there can be all kinds of recommended changes in other areas of the system based on Intel CPU and/or systemd or Debian.
Also there are special circumstances like the OP where Integrated Graphics and Discrete Graphics aka "Hybrid Graphics" are built into the Motherboard.
The Nvidia website does talk about black screens that are common questions in A.U. (Ask Ubuntu) so it's a worthwhile visit for most reading the OP's question.

First option is to go into software and updates. When you are in software and updates, go to the additional drivers page. Wait for a second until it has loaded and see if there are any options there.
The second option is to download it through the terminal. First of all, check the exact graphics card with:
Find the recommended driver and type the command:
Or type the command:
