Computer specs in my signiture. How do I enable onboard graphics so I can plug an HDMI cable in to my TV, as my GPU doesn't have any other spots and I don't want to buya DP adapter.

 

More importantly, would enabling onboard graphics decrease performance even if the TV isn't plugged into onboard graphics?

 

 

Thanks!

Normally there is a igpu multi monitor option in the bios you have to set to enabled. 

 

It won't hurb performance.

Would this set it to ONLY use onboard or does it still use my GPU too ?

Go to bios,

Enable on board GPU,

Enable multi monitor,

Set priority to PCI-e,

 

Plug in second screen,

 

Go to Windows,

Install iGPU drivers,

 

Profit.

 

I've been using it for years,

It has no impact on performance. 

It's not a race to the bottom.
