I'm finally getting around to setting up two monitors for my work PC, an HP DC5100 small form factor. &nbsp;I'm told by HP that I would be able to use the existing onboard video and just add a standard PCI video card. &nbsp;I just have to configure the BIOS accordingly.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Question, is there is any benefit to not using the onboard video card and just buy a dual-head video card? &nbsp;I saw the NVIDIA Quadro cards, but ideally I'd like to stay under $100 for this setup.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

A desktop computer is a personal computer designed for use at a single location due to its size and power requirements, usually by one person. The most common configuration has a case that houses the power supply, motherboard, disk storage (usually one or more hard disk drives and optical disc drives); a keyboard and mouse for input; and computer monitor and printer for output. The case may be oriented horizontally and placed atop a desk or vertically and placed underneath or beside a desk.
