Building a PC using an intel core i9 14900KS without a GPU. Will the PC run fine on integrated graphics?
These are the rest of the parts I plan on using
I also plan to add a GPU in the future (probably a 4070)

Yes it will for everyday normal use, but not for gaming.

Interesting, do you think the other parts are compatible as well?

Integrated graphics will be okay for standard use but you’ll need a decent GPU if you want to do any real gaming. Doesn’t have to be the newest or latest and greatest but definitely will need one. Depending on the level of gaming or what you’re going for a 9060 xt 16gb will probably work fine and won’t break the bank.

You could save 15 to 30 ish on cpu cooler. 1000w psu you probably wont need but gives you more options in the future so, looks good nothing crazy priced you could save minimal on parts. so if this is what you want id just look for combo deals and savings before buying. def go with the 4070 you mentioned over the 9060xt. Dont waste the money on a budget card if you still plan on getting a better gpu. yeah u cant game yet, but youll be happier in the long run brother. just save the money for the better one so you can get what you want. or get cheaper cpu and throw that money toward gpu if this is just gonna be a gaming rig for its main use. Also 9070xt and 4070 very close in price but id go with the 9070xt due to more vram or get a 4070 ti which is 1000 plus. I did see a 4070 12gb refurb for 549 on here that wouldn’t be a bad price.

The reason I’m getting the cpu is because i can get it at a really good deal compared to normal, thats the main reason im trying to use this cpu.

I love the 14900s and 13900s just need some tinkering to really utilize the power and keep em cool so no throttling issues but very doable.
