Hello

I'd like to use the MOBO HDMI and the GPU HDMI at the same time if it's possible?
(Reason: I do not have a VGA or DVI and I'd prefer to save the money if I can).

Setup: I5 3570K | Z77 MPOWER ATX | Sapphire 7970 | Seagate 7200 RPM 500GB | Samsung 840 250GB | Fractal Design Define R4 | Corsair CX600 80 Plus Bronze


Anyone can help me out?

What is your end goal? I am not sure why you would want both active at the same time? Are you trying to drive two monitors? Are you wanting to watch videos on one while playing on the other?
 
I have different motherboard (Asus Z87-Plus) and CPU (i7-4770) and Asus GTX 650 TI Boost graphics. I tried using Intel HD Graphics and discrete graphics at the same time and it works but after running some graphics benchmarks I had some flickering until I rebooted (I haven't used them together long enough to investigate further and don't intend to use them together long-term, just wanted to see if it works). However, I haven't tried using 2 HDMI outputs at the same time. If I recall correctly I tried 2 DVI on discrete card and on-board DVI. I have not tried to use all outputs at the same time but my understanding is that they should all be working.

Yes, there is a BIOS setting that needs to be turned on - it is called iGPU multi-monitor support in my BIOS. On your screenshot potential equivalent is IGD Multi-monitor
