I have a motherboard that includes on-board graphics and sound. However, I also have additional (and better) graphics and sound cards connected to PCIe slots in the motherboard. The onboard graphics and sound are not used but enabled in the BIOS/UEFI with appropriate drivers installed.
Should the onboard graphics and sound be disabled in the BIOS/UEFI if additional graphics and sound cards are used? Do the onboard graphics/sound compete with and used resources that can be dedicated to the additional graphics/sound cards?
Specifics: I have a custom rig with an Intel Motherboard (Asus Rog Strix Z390-E). The motherboard has built-in Intel VGA adapter and Realtek sound. Additional components include NVidia GForce 2080 RTX Ti XC graphics card and SoundBlaster AE-9 sound card.
I also plan to dual boot with Linux in the near future. I know that Creative Sound Cards are poorly (and that is being generous) supported under Linux. I think the Realtek sound does have better support. Should I leave the Realtek sound enabled in that case?
Thanks!
