so im installing my power supply, and I want to test my pc. however, I do not have a gpu yet, so the PCI plugs are left unplugged. is it safe to test the system and turn it on?
If you have onboard graphics, the PCIe connectors will never connect to anything anyway.
Yes, it's totally "safe" to run with cables disconnected - as long as you have the required connections for the hardware you have (EPS, ATX, SATA etc), then you'll be fine.... assuming you have in iGP.
