May I ask a different question however: what is the reason that ASUS made that "non-V" P8H67 motherboard. It has H67 chipset but unlike the P8H67-V no video output on the back panel. How does it functionally differ from P8P67 then?
Many many thanks sticks435 for telling about the conversation which personally I never have heard about. So, so far it's like this:
Z68 - discrete GPU-board installed
monitor on discrete GPU-board, no monitor on Sandy Bridge-GPU: no QuickSync
no monitor on discrete GPU-board, monitor on Sandy...
Many thanks for the very helpful explanation Seero. It's a huge amount of help! fuzzymath10's empiric facts helped a lot too! I'm still learning the facts from these detailed explanations. It's really something that have to be learned, it's that complex. It's not enough to read it. I will post...
Ok, I have to edit all my posts above.
I will do that immediately after having finished this post. The reason is that I made the statement under the false knowledge that installing a discrete GPU-board ultimately disables the Sandy Bridge-GPU completely on an H67 PCH motherboard. "Completely"...
...by the way: the anandtech-article mentioned by member Seero in this thread says that QuickSync can be used with one monitor on a discrete board and another one on the IGP's DVI out. I don't understand this either. What does a monitor connected to somewhere do to QuickSync working or not...
How do you do that? When a discrete GPU-board is installed, the DVI out on the motherboard is dead, since Sandy Bridge GPU is off. Do you really have one DVI connector on the GPU-board's DVI out and the other one on the motherboard's DVI out? And both monitors work?
On a H67 motherboard...
I'm completely and totally wrong or, except for using the special Lucid software, there will never ever be QuickSync while using a PEG GPU-Board without that software. Where does this misunderstanding stem from actually? Who exactly did create it and where exactly? In other words: If I'm not...
