Hi Jason,
I would go with option 1. There is functionality in the program that uses the GPU that will cause issues if there is not a dedicated card present in the machine. Stuff like opening attributes windows and anything that provides a visual preview of the items will work better with a dedicated card.
Right now in the software any render that you can manipulate, attribute previews, initial renders etc… is handled by the GPU. Renders that are static like the final render created by clicking the re-render/realtime button in the rendering or the 360 panoramic renderings are handled by the CPU.

Love the Avatar by the way 🙂
