Does switching my AMD motherboard and processor to Intel mean changing the AMD graphics card?

I have an AMD A8-6600K APU with AMD Radeon HD graphics, but I want to change to an Intel I5 4690 3.5GHz Quad Core, Asus H81M Plus Motherboard DDR3 HDMI 4K... Does this mean I have to change anything else, like the AMD graphics card or stuff..? Sorry if it's a stupid question, but it's my first time doing this to the computer.
 
Your CPU is an APU, which is an AMD term that means the GPU is integrated in the CPU - you'll need to either buy a graphics card or use the one that comes built in to the intel CPU (not very high performance but tolerable for things like web browsing)
