it really shouldnt affect current gpus, especially if the game isnt running on the second monitor at the same time too. and if youre really concerned, just turn the second monitor off when you want to game, as that will disable any signals being sent to it, and if that doesnt work, you can always configure a the control panel to just use a single display.

but no, unless youre intentionally using the second monitor ingame too, you shouldnt experience any differences in performance.

the only problems you might experience however, are compatability problems, some games just dont like having a second monitor enabled.
