I'm putting together a new build. the CPU will be an Intel Core i5-14400. the build will be around $1,000. have been looking at GPU's in the $100 to $150 range, but have also been considering just using onboard graphics.

in 2019, I updated my PC with an ASRock Phantom Gaming D Radeon RX 570 8GB. it was on sale for $139.99 at the time. I was wondering if reusing it in my new build would be a good option.

I don't game. I may do some video editing. I use dual monitors. I don't think i have a need for a great video card.

so the questions would be 1) will there be any issues with compatibility with a new motherboard (since it's no longer for sale, I can't rely on online PC builders)? how will it compare to a new lower end GPU? how will it compare to onboard graphics?

thanks in advance.

570 8GB is still quite a bit faster than onboard graphics. No reason not to use it.

You could purchase a lower power GPU I suppose. Or one with an HDMI 2.1 support if that ever becomes a need. No immediate need though.

If you wanted to try onboard graphics, the i5-14500 has Intel HD770 rather than the Intel HD730 of the i5-14400. That is a difference worth paying for.

Or you could do a Ryzen 8700G build instead and get the best available integrated GPU. In terms of gaming they would be roughly equivalent and the 780M is a lot newer architecture.
