[SOLVED] Display Output Options

[rcampbell578]

Hey guys,
So I'm building a PC for a friend of mine and he's mainly going to use the computer for work. He's not a gamer, so it'll probably never be gamed on. He needs a dual monitor setup, but I don't really want to invest in a "gaming" card. I mainly just need a solution that will output the display to two monitors. We're going with a Ryzen chips since it's cheap and gives you the best bang for your buck.

I'm not really sure what my options are, and what the best option would be. Is there a solution to get a display output on a processor that doesn't have onboard graphics? What would be my best option for someone on a budget?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

ryzen have apu.
on a processor without onboard, you need a dedicated gpu

Intel been lowering their 10/9th gen price.

Well, if you save $50 on the Ryzen 3xxx CPU+Motherboard only to be stuck spending $100+ on a dGPU just to get video output, then your friend might be better off just spending $50 extra on a more powerful 10th-gen Intel CPU+motherboard to use the IGP instead.

You can get a GT710 for $40-50 and it will support dual monitors.
