  • Linux server & graphics card drivers?

    I'm currently setting up a server for use at home. I'm running a 64bits installation of Arch Linux on a mini desktop with an intel core 2 duo 4500 with integrated graphics.

    I won't ever be using a graphical interface on this server, so i was wondering about the following:

    Do i need to install graphics card drivers if i'm not using graphical interfaces at all? Would installing the drivers have any benefits like power saving or is it better not to install graphics card drivers to keep my operating system as clean and lightweight as possible?
