I just gotten a new HDTV to use as a second monitor and I am having to use a VGA cable since my HDMI is being used by the other one. I wanted to know if it would be logical to buy a very cheap HD graphics card to use on other monitors. Also, I want to know if when playing a game or something similar will it use whatever GPU that the monitor is using?
 
Most integrated graphics should support dual monitors just fine, every dedicated graphics card will.
Yes, games on that monitor will be powered by the GPU that it is hooked up too, so you want your primary monitor (the one games and programs open on) hooked up to your stronger graphics solution.
