Hello, I did change to a PC with the i5 6500 but I still did not put a video card to finish saving, it will be one or two months, but I was testing the integrated Intel HD 530 but I have seen temperatures are Little high playing, I say will be because when using the integrated heats one more the processor, even more with the heat it makes and my room is not very ventilated to say it would be better not to make use of it like to play? I do not want to compromise the processor that is new and wait a bit to have the graph.
 
Using onboard graphics will increase the CPU temp a little, but usually not the difference between save/unsafe.

What kind of temps are you seeing?

If they are in 'unsafe' territory, then you may had to address the overall cooling of the setup if you're not in a well ventilated spot and it's a little warm. Dropping a GPU in there in future will likely lighten the load (and temps) on the CPU, but again, not likely to be dramatic differences. A gPU is also a little more susceptible to overheating (if it's being stressed or lacks airflow).
 
Using integrated graphics, especially newer is okay to run games at low settings. The heat emitted will not harm your CPU, so just wait until you can afford a nice graphics card to pair with it. If you have slots, adding fans may help with the temperature.
