If I disable on- board graphics would I get better temps?
I have an i5 4670k and I was wondering if I disable on - board graphics would I get better temps, I am not using on - board, I am using my GPU'S.
Thanks Callum.

Since when does the i5 IGP compute when not working!? I wonder anyway what he is going to disable, seeing that his IGP is not active in the first place.

@Callum: If you were actually using your IGP, your temps would not necessarily be worse. You would just have less thermal budget left for your real CPU cores. It is perfectly possible to take an i5 to 100°C on all 4 cores without its IGP being active. Still it computes faster that way than if its IGP were active on top of that, producing heat on its own so that its CPU cores need to throttle earlier.
