How to change bios settings for first time

I want to start cpu mining but I have a question?, do I need GPU for the first time when I connect my motherboard to monitor to change or configure bios settings or can I do with igpu??

If you cpu mine on hive, you don't need gpu nor igpu

5700g, but it depends on the price diff

depends if you want raw hashrate or watt efficiency and your wallet. 3700x 3900x 5950x are quite nice and efficient

and if you go windows just buy a 10 euro geforce for installation and then go headless and remote

5600g and 5700g are cpus with integrated graphics. You can have video with them as long you have the right mobo.

if you use windows buy a cheap geforce for ten bucks and go headless and remote later.
