A question:
I have an i7-2600K on an Asus Board , can i use the on-board Intel HD Graphics to drive display?

(My board has only 2 PCI-E Slot,Now i am use FX580 for display and 690 for render)

I try to do this, Unfortunately, the software kept crashing, and i had to abandon the attempt.
:shock:

don't givu up and keep trying =) I see some eo have some isues with that..

I'm curently running screens from 3570k without a glitch
& I'm really happy leaving PCIe slots for render jobs..

at the begining I could not even get signal from my Mb conectors, but..
after a while things got better..though I'm not sure what I've done..
