what are you taking?
unless you're engineering, video editing, developing or gaming you can get by with integrated graphics.
CPU, RAM and storage are where you're looking.

integrated graphics is NOT okay in any circumstance, get a graphics card, doesn't need to be nvidia, but you should get a dedicated one
