Can you run a PC without a GPU?

[Savant-ism]

All the parts of my system has arrived except the GPU because it was delayed. The part will arrvie in 2 weeks. So i was wondering if i could at least build and run the PC without doing anything on it, and it having no GPU be able to atleast turn on, install and run a OS. When i get the GPU in like 2 weeks hopefully, I surely will put it in.

Yes, you can most definitely run the computer without a graphics card. Most computers don't even have one. Just remember to unplug your computer from the power source before installing your GPU once it arrives.

CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K

Yes. You can run it from the graphics system integrated in the CPU.

yes, as there is a built-in gpu (a weak one though, not good for gaming) in the cpu.
it will run just fine. just do not expect to be gaming well, but as far as using the rig, yes it is ok.

Just as long as its got onboard video and the CPU supports HD graphics you dont need a separate GPU

And just as long as BIOS 1.30 is on the mobo when you get it, it'll work. It needs this BIOS update to support that CPU

Thanks, so what type of games CAN i run on it for the time being? I'm assuming nothing really?
