Default red hat 9, KDE

Alright, need a little help please.

When I installed Red Hat 9 i told it to install KDE and use that as the default logon, now I don't reallly need it anymore but don't want to uninstall it and I don't want the gui taking up resources so what config file do i edit to tell it not to load a GUI and just load the CLI

I'm guessing i'll just need to edit the default runtime correct?

if this is right I think i know what to do, but i don't remember which file i need to edit.

Thanks in advance.
