Is there a way to get the gpu in the cpu to crunch on a board that does not have video out on the board?

Yes, for Intel CPUs, it has to be Ivybridge or newer, for Boinc to detect the Intel GPU you'll need to extend the desktop onto it too, then you need Intel OpenCL 1.2 drivers as well.

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=74179&postid=1482521

That is right click on the desktop, choose 'screen resolution', go 'detect', chose the display that is on your Intel GPU, you'll have to force it detect the GPU by 'try and connect anyway on: VGA', then on 'multiple displays', chose 'extend these displays'

What happens if you go 'Detect'?

yes you where right connected and i extended the desktop to it

boinc detects the gpu now but for some reason neither seti or einstein is using it

any suggestions ?

Click update on the Seti project, your i7-3930K host isn't showing an Intel GPU yet:

Computer 7216175

Then restart Boinc and post the Boinc startup from the Event log, the first 30 lines should do.

As usual: post 30-40 initial lines of BOINC startup log.

I was wondering who would build a motherboard with no video out if the CPU could supply video.
