I was looking at the following motherboard:

Question: It has an HDMI output. I was wondering whether I needed a dedicated gpu or a apu with this motherboard.

Context:
I'm trying to build a relatively cheap linux build - I'm not looking for gaming, but mainly web coding and browsing.

The CPU I had in mind was http://www.amazon.co.uk/AMD-FX6300-4-1GHz-Socket-Retail/dp/B009O7YORK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1450962958&sr=8-2&keywords=amd
