First, don't post the same question multiple times, as you've been asked about before. Second, you don't need to post EVERYTHING from an lspci, when you're asking about your video setup.
Please post your thread in only one forum. Posting a single thread in the most relevant forum will make it easier for members to help you and will keep the discussion in one place. This thread is being closed because it is a duplicate.
