Hello
i asked this question at monitor section but i couldnt get the answer that i want because i asked the wrong section
Currently im using one monitor . most of the time Im playing a game ( path of exile ) and at the same time im opening chrome then opening youtube videos or twitch streams(just watching , not streaming ) .
So i wanted to the use secondary monitor so i can watch youtube videos or streams without alt+tabbing ( its so annoying )
My secondary monitor has only VGA input , Samsung SyncMaster E2220
Problem is as far as i know Game using the GPU while chrome using the onboard iGPU while im playing the game and opening videos at chrome ,
1 - So if i connect my secondary monitor to my onboard iGPU via using VGA input then its the same thing that im doing atm ?
2 - What if i connect my secondary monitor to the GPU too ? Both will use the GPU ?
Sole purpose of these questions are that i want to use secondary monitor and i dont want to harm/overload my GPU nor onbard iGPU
So which port should i use for my both monitors ?
My primary monitor has VGA and DVI-D(dual link)
--Asus 21.5 VS228NE 5ms 1920x1080 60Hz DVI
My secondary monitor has only VGA
--Samsung SyncMaster E2220
