If you are not gaming just use the onboard graphics on your motherboard. Should be at least HDMI 2.0 which is good for most 4K TV's.

thank you for the compliment.

you will just laugh when i tell you, all i do is web browsing and watch films. my old set up was 4th gen and wanted to upgrade to the latest gen which is 11th but i have only heard that in few months 12th gen will be out so i should have wited.

oh i play on facebook games too which, from what ive heard, doesnt require a gpu as its a browser game, hopefully that is correct.

The iGPU is in the CPU. The motherboard determines the ports available and connects those ports up to the outputs from the iGPU as required.

Well if your gaming needs gets beyond candy crush you can pop in a decent gpu and away you go.

Enjoy.
