Does using CPU Integrated Graphics card reduce CPU's life span?

*Just using to play CS:GO*

Because I'm planning to buy GTX 950, but not right now, I mean maybe in June, so I'm worried if using the Integrated Graphics will reduce my CPU life
 
Solution
No it won't. You can use the integrated gpu for gaming without any worries. The integrated gpu is also cooled by the cpu cooler. The things that kill a cpu is overvoltage and extreme heat. So as long as you are using the cpu without overclocking and keeping the cpu temps below 70*c, its completely safe.

How do you know if your CPU is over-voltage?

Oh my CPU is not overclocked, and it's locked :) i5-4460 and its temperature is in 40~55 I think when playing CS:GO
 


Don't worry about over voltage as long as you are not overclocking your cpu. Please select my answer as solution so that it will be helpful to others who see this thread.
 


Oh that's a relief :) thanks!
