    Disable ROG Strix Z390-E mobo onboard VGA and sound if not used?


    I have a custom rig with an Intel Motherboard (Asus Rog Strix Z390-E). The motherboard has built-in Intel VGA adapter and Realtek sound. However, I have an external NVidia GForce 2080 RTX Ti XC graphics card and SoundBlaster AE-9 sound card.

    Should I disable the on-board Intel and Realtek devices in the Bios if they are not used?

    I also plan to dual boot with Linux in the near future. I know that Creative Sound Cards are poorly (and that is being generous) supported under Linux. I think the Realtek sound does have better support. Should I leave the Realtek sound enabled in that case?

    Thanks!
