Planning to buy
Cpu - Intel E3 1231 v3
Mb - Asus h97-plus
Gpu - Asus gtx 970 strix
Psu - Corsair CS 650w
Case - Corsair Carbide 300r
Ram - Corsair 1x 8gb Vengeneance CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10
Dvd drive - Asus DRW-24D3ST
Monitor - Benq XL2420Z

As Xeon doesn't comes with integrated intel HD video graphics and I wouldn`t be able to install the nvidia graphic drivers, because i have to unplug the video card (so the whole system would not work).
Am i wrong?  
Will I have any problems in future for updating gtx 970 drivers using xeon processor?
