So I'm thinking of getting a second monitor for my birthday coming up, and I'm making sure if it will strain my GPU? The monitor I'm looking to get is an HP Pavilion 23xi so it's the same monitors.

Specs: (This is store bought so this is why I'm asking if it will strain my computer)

Motherboard: MSI MS-7778 (Jasmine)
Chipset: AMD A75 FCH
Processor: AMD A8-5500 with 4 cores
GPU: Integrated Graphics
RAM: 8 GB
Full Specs: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c03645559#N208

Thanks for your support and feedback.

Looking at your MOBO it appears you will have to run one monitor off a VGA and one off a DVI-D... Uh Oh:

From AMD Eyefinity FAQ: DVI-D: DVI-D is short for Digital Video Interface – Digital. This connection provides a digital video signal. A VGA (analog) connection CANNOT be established using a DVI to VGA adapter.

In short I don't the two different connectors can be in sync if you know what I mean because they use different ways of showing image, though I might be wrong as I'm not completely sure.

Will it be able to play games at high settings at 30 FPS like CS:GO without getting a better GPU? Because I'm on a tight budget right now. :b

What happens if it's not in sync? Will it mess up performance or how it displays?
