Yes this is true u can do this

But if you are installing a discrete graphics card then its more than likely that you could output DVI from both outputs of the graphics card and would not need the onboard graphics at all (I know the HIS silent ATI3450 can do this) - the OP wanted to avoid this scenario if possible. Also if I were to install a discrete card into my 780g I would almost certainly disable the onboard video to reduce the heat in the case - the video heatsink on the MB gets bloody hot.
