yeah that's what he explained.

 

since you only have integrated graphics, it's baked onto the CPU die. so the 'graphic interface' on CPU-Z is reading the on-die GPU.

and because it is on-die, it is likely not using any external PCIe lanes. so the graphic interface is X0.

My best guess is that integrated graphics are picked up this way by CPUz. Probably has something to do with them being on-die and not actually in a PCIe slot.
