I'm putting together my first build with an AMD A10-5800k that has 7660D integrated graphics and I was also able to pick up a Radeon R9 270x. It is my understanding from reading that they are not duel graphics compatible or able to crossfire.

My question is would I be able to run HDMI to the 7660D and play a game like WoW on the R9 270x at the same time. Or when I install the R9 will that make the integrated 7660D essentially worthless.
 
Solution
It will depend on the motherboard/BIOS as to whether or not it allows both the integrated and discrete GPUs to be active at the same time. Chances are you will be able to put the 2nd monitor on the iGPU and the main monitor on the card. But no guarantees.
