You can connect to either on-board video port or discrete video card with the newer version of lucid virtu software.

The main point of lucid software is that it let you keep/combine Intel IGP's function while using a discrete video card. Like using Intel IGP's QuickSync to transcode video files and play high demanding game using the discrete card, doing both at the same time.
