Okay, a weird question here, I have a 2011 27" i5 3.1GHZ, 6970m 1GB, 12GB RAM, 1TB iMac. Now, obviously the iMac has the AMD 6970m as its GPU, but does the sandy bride i5-2400 3.1GHZ come with Intel HD Graphics? Ive tried to do lots of research but I didn't find much, so I was hoping somebody here knows if this is true and if I can combine the power of both GPU's if thats possible. Thanks for any info in advance :)

The i5 2400 has the intel HD 2000 graphics on the chip. IF it is possible to use them both, then I'm 99% sure that Apple has already done it, otherwise it will not be possible either due to Apple not allowing it in the FW or just strictly not being possible.....could be wrong though :p
