I have an Optiplex 9020 with a dedicated ATI R5 240 with Displayport and DVI out. The onboard has 2 Display port and 1 VGA out. Right now I have 2 monitors plugged into both of the ATI slots and 1 plugged into the onboard displayport. My question is do all 3 monitors run the resources of the ATI 240 or only the 2 actually plugged into it? If so, does just dragging the window to the other display change that?
 
Solution
the screen plugged into the card use the card, as a window moves from screen to screen windows manages that and the resource load moves as required.
