Intel IGC and Dedicated GPU

Socky · June 9, 2014

I want to run both my GTX 760 and my i5 3570k's integrated. Now you maybe wondering, WHY IN FUCKS SAKE DO YOU NEED TO DO THIS? Well I have a projector that doesn't work off a DVI to VGA adapter so I need a VGA plug which is absent on my 760 and present on my mobo (MSI Z77MA-G45). Also I am already using both DVI Ports and I do not want to switch my main monitor to HDMI, I have gotten my Integrated to work by itself but can't seem to get both to work at the same time. Can anyone help me do this?

You can buy this and it will work with your GPU. http://www.ebay.com/itm/DVI-DVI-I-Male-to-VGA-Female-Video-Converter-Adapter-M-F-LCD-HDTV-Brand-New-/181350870765?pt=US_Video_Cables_Adapters&hash=item2a395aaeed

Did you try to use the adapter in DVI-I? bc on DVI-D won't work...

I have that and what would happen is the projector would have these random red strips going up and down. This is an old cheap projector btw and the adapter has been used for monitors and it works fine.

I think you should be able to use the iGPU once you enable it in the BIOS I believe.
