I'm a total noob with hardware. My graphics card only allows one HDMI display, but I've got other ports which I assume I can use for 2nd display. I looked at DVI to hdmi but the DVI had 2 extra pins which two doesn't have on the picture.

Please can this community help me & advise, What port is one & two? Also can I get a wire to convert to hdmi for 2nd display?

Port 1 Is Display Port

Port 2 is DVI-D Dual Link

^ This (I could repeat this, but this is already the correct answer :P )

 

What kind of wires/adapter you need @Squirrel442 is entirely dependent on what display outputs you have right now.

Displayport can be converted to anything with relatively inexpensive adapter. DVI can be converted rather cheaply to HDMI with a simple converter, or to VGA with an active converter.
