WorriedAboutDataLoss Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Aargh! I thought I was done with my questions!! I just realized that I didn't check whether this motherboard / CPU combo has on-board graphics If I want to connect to a monitor for initial setup etc. Or will I have to get a separate VGA card for that!! Thoughts appreciated!! Link to comment

Thoughts appreciated!! Which board are you getting? If it is this one... Yes would be my assumption since it lists a rez. http://www.amazon.com/ASRock-B75-CrossFireX-Motherboard-PRO3-M/dp/tech-data/B007RQ0HSA/ref=de_a_smtd Link to comment

Ron Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I would say yes as long as your CPU has Graphic capability. Link to comment
WorriedAboutDataLoss Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 OK. Yes - just saw that it lists the resolution! Thx! Didn't see that before... For some reason - I went to the asrock website to lookup the board and saw this note: "*Intel® HD Graphics Built-in Visuals and the VGA outputs can be supported only with processors which are GPU integrated." So that confused me!! Now regarding the CPU - This is the one that I already ordered: http://www.amazon.com/Intel-Celeron-2-60GHz-Processor-BX80637G1610/dp/B00B4BJYVU/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1373590771&sr=1-1&keywords=G1620 Doesn't mention graphics capabilities anywhere!! Any ideas? Link to comment
WorriedAboutDataLoss Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 OK Phew!! I think I'm all set - just went to intel's site and for that processor they specify "Intel HD Graphics" with 3 supported displays ! Link to comment
garycase Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 The Celeron G1620 has built-in graphics Link to comment
