Actually...no! Guess I better try that first. Didn't even realize it had onboard graphics. Best see what that is from the MB Manual...

No onboard graphics on this mb. I did switch from dvi to hdmi and the stars were worse. This is a different monitor as well.

I guess I need to also add that this is not a UEFI board. This is legacy. That's why I bought this computer. Yea - I'm a dinosaur.

I ordered a GT 1030 GDDR5 card and received it today. The stars are gone! I had a GT 730, and would have bought an even better card, but I had no desire to buy another power supply. This was the best card I could get without upgrading the PS. It is a good card for my needs.
