    You can't run without a dgpu on the normal firmware.

    You can use a broken gpu (like all 7970m's would be at this point lol) to bypass the firmware throwing a hissy fit about a missing dgpu, so long as it is not so broken that it doesnt post and load Windows.

    Once in Windows, don't let it install drivers, and disable the card in device manager, and it will always use the igpu from there
