Hello, I have these parts: an i5 10400, Gigabyte H410M H RAM, HyperX 8GB X2. I’m wondering if it’s feasible to use the IGPU in the main monitor and run a budget GPU like the GeForce GT 710 only on the secondary screen for basic tasks such as YouTube or movies. I’m from Argentina and finding a good GPU is really tough because of the high costs.
Ensure the iGPU is activated in the BIOS settings. It may be turned off during dedicated GPU installation.
Yes, you can activate it in the BIOS. It’s usually turned off by default when the dGPU is connected, but some motherboards may behave unpredictably. From my experience, it functions perfectly once enabled.
You're sure you can handle it. It's clear why—this iGPU handles two displays easily and isn't much more demanding than a 710.
