I've been using the onboard graphics on my Gigabyte GA-Z97MX-GAMING LGA1150 mATX motherboard for a few weeks. I installed latest motherboard drivers.

I'm now installing a EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti SC 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card from older machine.

My EVGA GPU instructions say to uninstall old GPU drivers if you had one, before installing new GPU drivers.

1) I'm not sure if onboard graphics = GPU.
2) I'm new to Windows 8.1 (Formerly XP), and not sure if 8.1 would handle both onboard driver and GPU driver.
