So I'm a Streamer and currently have only one monitor so looking at my chat is hard considering i must alt+tab out of every game and some games have a chance of crashing. So my friend gave me an old monitor, but I could still use it. My question is Can I enable my motherboards graphics and still keep my graphics card enabled in order to use the 2nd monitor, since it must be plugged into the motherboard.

Hello... Yes, you can have dual monitors using the CPU/GPU and exterior GPU.
Make sure both are enabled in your BIO's, and make sure your have the proper drivers installed in Windows, and they are both enabled in your Device manager.
Right click your desktop-Screen resolution for setting up or changing your Multi-screen options.
