2 different graphics cards, 2 monitors?












0















I'm working on setting up a new computer for video editing. It will be an MSI B450 Carbon motherboard with a Ryzen 7 2700x CPU. For graphics cards, I currently have a 1gb Geforce 210 DDR3, and am planning on getting an MSI Rx 570 armor 8g oc.



Neither of my 2 monitors has a display port so I will only be able to connect via VGA and/or DVI. Will it be possible to use the cheap GeForce 210 to connect both my monitors and then use the Rx 570 just for video editing?

    The editing of videos is done using the computer's CPU/RAM, graphics cards are for rendering/displaying video content.
