I have heard that there is an IN BUILD graphics card with Intel Core i5-2310 CPU (2.90 Ghz) and that it enables after installing the installation disk which came with the product. I have ATI RAEDEON HD 5400 series (2 GB Graphics Card) and I want to increase it more. So can it (in build graphics card) be enabled? Please help.
 


Hi - yes that i5 2310(hd2000) comes with onboard graphics, but very low in perf
even for on board, and I'm pretty certain can't combine it with the 5400 series gpu.

That technology does exist with some modern mobo's, and much of the
time it really is of no benefit.

I suggest you save up some $$ for a gpu a little higher up the food chain.
Even a sub $100 card like the hd7750 will give much more perf than
you now have.

 


Correct on CF/SLI, but Integrated Graphics can work with Discrete Graphics
simultaneously. It's Lucid Virtu, I have it on my mobo, but do not use
it based on technical reports I read. I did get a user on Tom's forum
that used it & extolled it's virtue's (pun intended)
 
Now I know the answer here myself, just don't care about the Intel HD Graphics. Intel HD Graphics are used mostly in laptops and NEVER enable Lucid Logix. It'll give you an 8 Bit display with 640x480 Resolution so any GPU is better than intel HD for desktops. Shared system memory is the additional graphics memory drawes from your RAM and uses it as video memory.
