hi does any one know if the asrock a320m-dgs, has built in graphics. I check on the asrock sight it said" Integrated AMD Radeon™ R-Series Graphics in A-series APU*" does this mean that there is a graphics chip in the motherboard , therefore i dont need a graphics card to boot the device?

thanks for the help!

The motherboard has not integrated graphics chip.

You can use APUs on this motherboard which are AMD's Accelerated Processing Unit which are basically a CPU and a GPU on the same chip.

If you add one of those to the motherboard you won't need a graphics card to get picture to monitor and you can connect the monitor to the DVI-D Port on the motherboard.
