No, you can run both the IGP and a discrete GPU. I am using an HD3000 and 7950 as I write this. Saves me about 30w over running both monitors on the 7950.

Check the BIOS. There are probably three settings for the Integrated Graphics: Auto, Always off, and Always On (The actual language will vary). You want the "Always On" setting.

Don't expect to use the IGP in some sort of SLI/CF setup. This is just for desktop usage. You also need the right OS. Win7 does this (and I assume Win8), but not Vista.
