You can connect your HDMI cable directly to the motherboard's HDMI port without removing the GPU. Make sure the cable matches your motherboard model and that the HDMI port supports the required bandwidth for your display.

Certainly, but it needs to operate on an iGPU and activate that setting in the BIOS first.

It might require your CPU to have built-in graphics for this feature to function properly. If that’s the case, you’ll need to adjust the BIOS settings related to video output. Your system specifications can guide you better on possible options. Determining the exact steps is tricky without knowing your hardware.

The answer is clear—no signal can pass through the motherboard IO.
