Dual monitors with 2 graphic cards?

Memisae · Sep 14, 2013

Can I hook up my lcd screen to a normal gaming graphics card and my small tv to something like this(http://www.ebay.com/itm/AOpen-Geforce4-MX440-8x-64MB-DDR-PCI-Videocard-VGA-RCA-TV-out-90-05210-588-/181198945302) with the yellow av/out port? the small tv monitor I won't be playing games on but just browse while gaming.

Just connect your TV to the gaming card also. It will not impact your gaming.

yes, i've got my main screen on a gtx580, and my second screen on a GT210 it all depends on whether your second card can feed a signal to your TV. Makes sure they are both AMD or both NVIDIA.

Have you actually got a PCI slot? they are getting a bit rare.

Any card with vga output could use one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/bhp/vga-to-composite-cable

Thanks!
But i dont want my game to run on both screens at the same time, would that be a problem, and i would need a graphics card with yellow av/out.

no run one as an extended display windows + P on win 7 and better, or display settings on other versions.

Your game will run on the primary monitor.
Sound for games will come from your motherboard and out to your speakers.
There should be no need to attach any other sound. TV speakers are crappy.
