DirectX 11 9800GTX?

I just bought a 9800GTX used for 20$ on ebay. I know it doesn't support DirectX 11 but the Pentium Im planning to buy does. I was wondering if i could use the processor with Dx11 and the gtx as the gpu.

No. That graphics card is limited to DX 10. That was a great card in its day but it's underpowered for any games newer than 5 or 6 years old.

So i cant use the intel hd graphics WITH the gtx?

You mean use both of them at the same time or in switchable manner?

Both at the same time. I was thinking maybe i could use the intel for the directx and the vga card for everything else graphics wise. Just wondering if thats possible.

No it doesn't work like that. And the 9800GTX+ is a much more powerful choice than Intel HD graphics so it's the one you will want to use. Like I said it was a great card years ago, I had one. Just don't expect much from any game newer than about 2010 from it.
