My specs are
Gigabyte z170 k3 g1 gaming
I5 6600k
32gb Ddr4 corsair vengeance
Msi gtx 970 oc
Okay I've heard that I can use two monitors ,one on the gpu and one monitor on the onboard graphics . I'm new to this sort of thing but is it possible and if so ,how do I go about doing this ? Btw I'm not using the second monitor for gaming, it's more for web browsing and YouTube while I play on my main monitor. It would be great if anyone could help me out with this ,thanks :)

There is zero benefit (actually, it is often a net loss) to using the integrated graphics when you have a dedicated GPU.

Any and all monitors should be plugged directly into the 970.

Your integrated graphics should remain disabled in all circumstances.
