any way to use my integrated gpu?

[andreasaspenberg575]

i have an i7-8700k but, my motherboard does not have a graphics output. any workaround?

Change motherboard I guess

[mtono]

maybe cmos reset?

[andreasaspenberg575]

resetting my bios does not create ports that i do not have.

You sure it doesn`t have even HDMI socket?

[Bad 💀 Motha]

All those Motherboard should have at l3ast an HDMI port on rear of Motherboard.

But why would you want to use that GPU. If you have even a mid range dedicated GPU that should be able to handle 3x Displays without any slow downs or problems

Even without a Display connected to Motherboard for iGPU, you can still install and update that GPU Driver and also use it for things like Video Encoding

[andreasaspenberg575]

only exit ports on that motherboard is USB.

what mobo?

it should have lan and audio ports, maybe ps2
but most have atleast hdmi or maybe dp, 8th gen maybe it has a dvi

you can use it for video encoding/decoding
but any dedicated gpu will be faster

may help a bit for streaming games or remote play

[andreasaspenberg575]

right, i forgot about those sound ports and the lan port. i never use the sound ports however. i use the sound card in my dedicated gpu for all sounds. though that is all.

Display output is pretty much required on all motherboards because of integrated graphics, I've yet to see at least a modern motherboard that doesn't have ANY display output options for integrated graphics

[andreasaspenberg575]

does USB C count? there is one on the front of the pc.

[r.linder]

Not all USB-C is created equal, they can be made to do different things and the cable has to be able to actually provide a display output

Most USB-C cables are only good for charging and don't have any data throughput, you also need a display that supports USB-C as a display output

[andreasaspenberg575]

there is certainly nothing else that can be used as display output. that motherboard is built for connecting dedicated gpus to and not for using integrated gpus.

Because Video Cards are your video out when a motherboard doesn't have ports for that when a cpu has an iGPU.

Given the many, many threads you have with hardware, I would highly consider hiring someone to build your system(s) and resolve your issues.

i can usually handle stuff but, i just wondered if there was a way to use the unused integrated gpu.

No offense but the inordinate amount of threads highly suggest to the contrary. This is super, super basic stuff.

Are you having these issues or are you troubleshooting others issues using the steam forums trying to find the answers for others?
