Right, I need some clear and confirmed answers and I feel the LTT Crowd are the only ones who can give me the answer I need.

 

So here it is. I'm currently running two monitors, one 24" AOC with HDMI (has no displayport) my second screen (my old one) is 21.5" and also running HDMI (displayport available) I'm about to setup a third one with it being a TV on the wall to my left so I can just look to the left by about 5 degrees and see stuff. Now. My 1060 6GB is currently having both the HDMI slots used and occasionally one of the displayports (for vr). 

 

Here is the question I need answered: Would it be more beneficial for me to run the third screen via HDMI and OnBoard graphics, or should I swap my second monitor to DisplayPort and use the HDMI for the TV, making all of the displays run through the 1060 6GB.

 

Reason for asking is because I want to know if I will cause too much strain on the 1060 and be better off running it through OnBoard Graphics since it's not going to be handling any intensive tasks.

 

 

I appreciate all responses, as much as I know about tech and PC things, this was something I actually had to ask for help for since I'm no manufacturer and have no sense as to which is better.
