Dual Monitor Problems

[chopper4]

I would like to know if I can run dual monitors one off of my GPU and one off my integrated graphics. Anyone got a clue?

That one is usually a no. The system can use only integrated graphics, or only discrete graphics. You can drive multiple monitors with multiple discrete GPUs, though.

Depending upon what operating system you have, the make/model of your GPU and make/model of the mobo. Most of the time the answer is no....

What GPU and mobo do you have? Most can run dual monitors.....

I have a r9 280x and an asrock extreme4 z97 mobo

With Windows 7, you can run both (you have to select the onboard graphics as the primary and the PCI as the secondary). I have the extreme3 mobo with a smaller GPU, and on Windows 7 it worked great.....upgrading to Windows 8 forced me to choose.....

If you are only running 2 monitors - I would suggest using the GPU only....
