Disabling iGPU in the BIOS?

[Zeebedy]

Hey guys,

Just finishing off my install of software on the revamped system.

I have installed MSI AfterBurner and it is giving me the monitoring option for the iGPU and the 5080. Should I disable the iGPU in the BIOS? Or leave it on for any particular reason???

I disable it in the bios

thank you, thought that might be best, will do that soon.

I keep mine on just in case I need it for troubleshooting GPU display issues as its a pain switching out a waterblocked GPU to test if I need to.

That’s a good point right there.

I have disabled in bios for my use case.

I disable it, worse case if I need it back on and GPU fails I'll reset bios.

Often even if disabled in the BIOS assuming you have no GPU in the PCIE Slot onboard graphics will reenable if they have a monitor connected.
