Can I run dual monitors?

Can I run dual monitors with an i5 4460 and a 970?

DVI-D and HDMI. 120hz and 60hz

1 monitor for gaming, the other for youtube, google, etc...

In short, Yes just make sure the monitors have the same connections as your GTX 970 and you will be fine.

Would I experience any/much FPS drop?

Unless you plan on actually gaming across the two monitors then no. Just having a second monitor attached and displaying your desktop or with a website or video open is barely noticeable.

You can just hook them both to the 970 which supports up to 4 monitors. Without anything intensive in the background, it won't affect fps.
