Question There is no multi-monitor setting in my bios?

[kuletsh]

Hi im looking to get a 2 monitor setup running with my geforce gtx 1060 and Asus ex a320m gaming motherboard, but i cant find the system agent setting nor the multi-monitor setting in my bios. I sat up all night trying to figure it out and cant seem to find it, searching through this forum and other platforms. Anyone who can help me?

You won't find that setting in BIOS. Once the GPU's drivers are installed(after the OS) you should be able to use Windows display manager(right click desktop>display settings) and choose the orientation of your monitors as well as the layout.

I have one hdmi on my motherboard aswell as one on the graphics card, and i believe the one on the motherboard has been disabled as it does not work??

What cpu are you using?

i am very new to pc but i would assume it is the AMD am4 ryzen 5 1600??

The r5 1600 has no igpu so the ports on the motherboard are dead/useless. You will need to plug both monitors into the 1060. If the monitors only support HDMI then you'll need an adapter for the 2nd monitor.
