How to connect VAG of GPU is removed ?

Thanks.

If the ports are on the motherboard, the GPU is built into the motherboard and not removable. If the ports are on a card plugged into the PCIe x16 slot, then removing the GPU means you have to use the ports on the motherboard instead.

Thank you.

On board of T3-715, is the GPU, NVidia GeForce GTX745 4GB and the VGA port is connected to this GPU.  There is no other VGA port on the board.

This means that one has to use the GPU, no any other choice.  In case the GPU becomes defective, the PC is dead, unless replacing it with another one.  There is no any other VGA port on the board.

Looking at a photo of the rear panel of the T3-715 shows there is no VGA port - however the photo shows there is an HDMI port fitted

Yes, the T3-715 should have both an HDMI port and a DisplayPort connection on the motherboard. They are only used if there is no GPU installed in the PCIe x16 slot.
