What The Purpose Of Enabling Integrated Graphics & A Graphics Card?

That would depend on what you have. If you have an AMD APU and an AMD graphics card, then you can enable both and use "AMD dual graphics" were the two work together. If you an Intel CPU, or a NVidia graphics card then there is no point.....unless it's a laptop, which will switch between the two.

There's literally no point. Actually, it can take up some performance since iGPUs don't usually have dedicated VRAM, so they use the RAM for memory. But, it would probably not be a huge impact, unless you have very limited ram.

If you aren't gaming or doing anything else graphically intensive. You would want it if your goal was to simply run multiple monitors. More than a single cheap GPU can handle.

thank u, i have a i7 7700k with a gtx 1070 8gb oc edition, id like to run multiple monitors for when i game and livestream on my youtube channel at the same time but that would b the only reason. i wasnt sure if it would run together and enhance performance with my 1070. thanks again
