I'm getting a new GPU(MSI GTX 970) and for now I have been using the Integrated Graphics on my CPU(I3-4160). Will I have to uninstall the Driver for the Integrated Graphics or can I have both Drivers installed?
 
Solution
You can have both installed. On some motherboards you can actually utilize the Intel chip to drive monitors in addition to the video card.

Can the MSI GAMING 5 do that?

It appears so:

IGD Multi-Monitor
Enables or disables the multi-screen output from integrated graphics and external
graphics card.
[Enabled] Enables IGD multi-screen function.
[Disabled] Disables IGD multi-screen function.

So up to three displays from the CPU + whatever your discrete GPU can handle.

So how would I set this up? Would I do this in the BIOS or something else?
