Does anyone know if using the on-chip video from a Core i3 processor will prevent the use of the first PCI-E x16 slot on an H55 motherboard with a normal expansion card?

I'm looking to use two Supermicro AOC-SASLP-MV8 SAS controllers, which are PCI-E x4 cards. If it'll work with on-chip video, I could stick with something like the ASRock H55M Pro; if not, I might have to look at more server-oriented boards.

Or, does anyone have other suggestions?
