Hey guys, building my first pc and I have purchased everything except for the gpu. I plan on assembling everything so all I have to do to finish is install gpu when I get i. But I was wondering if I could go ahead and boot everything and install the OS without it? I know you can do that on some Intel builds but not sure about AMD.

Build:
fx-6350
gigabyte ga-970-ud3p
g skill ripjaws x 1866 4 gb
1 tb seagate barracuda
500 w Evga B

windows 8.1
 
No that cpu does not have Intergrated graphics, you would need a cpu with an APU/Intergrated graphics or a graphics card to run it. It might turn on but you wouldnt beable to get a video output, Especially since that board doesnt even have a video output.
