Display issues with integrated graphics on the i5 9600K on a second monitor.
I have two monitors, the main one is linked to the GPU but I want to use the processor's integrated graphics for the second monitor. I've already enabled BIOS and activated integrated graphics, though my default display remains set to the GPU as PEG. I suspect I should still be able to utilize the processor's graphics alongside the GPU. After resetting my PC several times, Windows is up to date, but I'm unsure how to make the second monitor activate properly. Also, I recently installed a clean Windows installation and only added a GPU driver since I have an Intel system. I believe manual driver installation isn't necessary, and I'd appreciate any advice on this. Thanks!
You're dealing with an MSI MPG Z390 Intel board from March 2019. The BIOS image might be useful, and your photo showing the integrated graphics activation could help identify the correct setup.
It seems to function properly after updating the BIOS. Just confirming the speed is 9600K, not 9600KF. Also, checking if the GPU is drawing power from its own card or using onboard graphics. If the issue persists, a CMOS reset might help. Settings could be causing the problem.
in windows you can launch task manager to view the cpu sku in bios, it appears on the first screen not necessarily where msi lists it, but it should clearly show the hardware details, you can remove the cooler and inspect the imediation, check the hsds or ihs for information
I verified the task manager and confirmed it doesn’t list the F model. I also checked the CPU box, which didn’t indicate an F model either. It’s unclear what might be causing this issue right now—could there be something physical on the motherboard that needs activation? Thanks.
I think the BIOS situation is uncertain, so manufacturers might not have it fully resolved. You can check if your iGPU and ports function by removing the dedicated GPU first, then seeing if a display appears. Before doing more tests, consider updating the BIOS to see if newer versions fix this problem.
