Graphics card as display path threw?

matto97

I want to plug a TV screen in to my comp so i can watch movies on a bigger screen but my GPU only has 3 out puts and im already using them.
But i have another GPU thats pretty much useless but am i able to plug it in and just use it as a pass threw and plug more screens in to it but have the picture travel threw it from the main GPU?
