    When you have a GPU plugged into the PCIe x16 slot, the onboard video is disabled, so drivers can not be installed. Download drivers for the HD 630 so they are available, power down and remove the GT 720 and plug your video into the motherboard, then bring it back up. It likely will come up with a Basic VGA Adapter drivers, but you can then install the right ones.

    ok, but since i saw some people they can use 2 gpu with a on board gpu and a gpu. i want to ask if my pc are ok to done with this settings? Cz when i plug my gt720 , the video output in bios was discrete ,  but when i unplug it, it shows to be on board? But whenever both choices it has, both are fixed choice and i can't change it.

    Also a little question, is hd 630 handle good in apex? Cz i turn all to the preset quality but my friend said that my cpu may ran out problem if i keep playing for a long time , since when i play, my cpu can easily got arround 80~85 degree , would u suggest i play apex like that? Or not suggested to play?

    Last, when i use the hd 630 , my background sometimes shown like this, and sometimes are worse, are that display error?

    The Acer motherboard does not support using the onboard graphics and a GPU card at the same time.

    Try adjusting your visual effect. I had to do this after an update for ghosty, grainy images.
