Dear Experts,

 

Can you please explain what are the differences between Intel Processor Graphics (Intel HD Graphics 630) & Other Graphic Cards??

Why do we see DVI and HDMI Slots with these Graphic Cards?? means we should not use the DVI & HDMI Slots of Motherboard??

The Intel HD is intergrated into the cpu and usually is enough for productivity and such. The "other graphics cards" are discrete cards that are way more powerful(to a certain price) then the Intel one. There is DVI and Hdmi on the cards because the cards are being used to process graphics and not the motherboard or cpu

Intel HD Graphics are built into the CPU itself. They're generally fine for media consumption and non-demanding applications, but they lack the horsepower for heavy graphics work. That's where discrete graphics cards come in. They have the extra computational power and RAM needed primarily for gaming. There are plenty of CPUs out there that don't have integrated graphics, which means a graphics card or display adapter (which is just a low-end graphics card) is needed.

 

If you have a discrete graphics card plugged in, yes, you'd want to have your monitor plugged into its HDMI/DP/DVI/VGA outputs. If you don't have a discrete graphics card and are using your CPU's integrated graphics, then you'd plug directly into the motherboard.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.
