HI, the problem is one of my monitors is VGA only so it won't work with my new 290X. I don't want to buy any adapters etc. cause I'm gonna change that old monitor soon anyway.
However until i find a new one i like, i thought maybe i can use the old one with the integrated card.
But how would it work? Is there some nice way to set this up? Is it the same as with 2 monitors on 1 GPU?
I'd only need the old monitor for web browsing etc. and the good one would be for gaming. Is it possible to pull it off?
