Is there a way for me to run dual monitors one through my graphics card and one through the integrated computer hardware? and if not could I simply put one monitor on my graphics card's rgb port and the other on the vga with an adapter? I would much rather do the first option because I do not have a adapter yet

That will depend on your motherboard. Most new boards allow the iGPU to remain active when there's a card in the PCIex16 slot. But some older boards disable the iGPU. If your CPU is an Intel or AMD with an on-die GPU, chances are you will be able to do that. If your iGPU is on the MB, it may not work. Best way to find out, is to try it.
