Can I run a workstation with out an integrated graphics card And still surf the web and watch YouTube videoOn a 52'in 1080 television As I have never built a computer this will be the first one however my previous computer came configured with onboard graphics integrated inside of the A-10 6700 AMD processor.Any help with this would be greatly appreciated as I am at a standstill until I can figure out this important step?

"Integrated" graphics means that the CPU manufacturer has built graphics functionality into the CPU. You plug your monitor into the motherboard.

The alternative is "Discrete" graphics, which means you have a separate graphics card. You plug your monitor into this graphics card.

"Integrated" graphics is usually fine for watching movies, or doing work on the desktop (e.g. browsing, word processing, etc). The AMD integrated graphics are quite a bit stronger than the Intel integrated graphics, so if you want to run the occasional old game without a graphics card, you will need an AMD CPU, of the type described by Wolfshadw, above.

I learnt that hard way. I have assemble my system not knowing that Integrated or GPU module is require for monitor for screen and boom no screen on boot up..

has Ryzen 2600

did some research and found out that Ryzen 2600 has no on-board graphics and without GPU it will not show up anything. Got my 580 3 days later and everything is working fine since then.
