Linked in this description is both the 2 monitors I owned ( LG 34''  UM95) and the desktop I plan on buying.

Do you guys think this desktop will allow me to have two displays or so I may connect both of my monitors to it?

I don't want to buy it if I can't connect my monitors to it. Also, will I require extra cables?

 

Thank you

You can't really tell since they don't even list the actual GPU included. With pre-built systems like these you never quite know what you will get (quality of power supply, cooling, etc.) so I would recommend you just build your own for better price to performance. If the graphics card is a R7 250 though then you should be able to connect one of the monitor's to HDMI and the other to DVI.

 

Also, do you plan on gaming on those monitors? Because when your monitor's cost more than double your system, good luck gaming on even one of them.

It says later on down the page that it has an "AMD RADEON GRAPHICS 8 COMPUTE CORES (R7 250 EQUIVALENT)" which I can only assume means the APU's integrated graphics.

It's for Graphics Design. I'm using the pc for Design. As far as prebuilt PCs, I can't build them. I'm on a 800$$ budget. And I need a pc that can output/connect to 2 display monitors.

Not really gaming!!!

What prebuilt can u recommend for Graphics Design that I can connect 2 or more monitors?

What do you mean you can't build a PC? You can make a custom PC build for $400 easily, why not $800? You would be getting much higher quality parts for the same price.

If you can get a friend to build the PC for you, or even follow this video tutorial and do it yourself. 

 

I'd go with this for $750 USD. The GPU is just shy of 4 times more powerful that the APU of your choosen PC and has a HDMI and a Display Port output. As your monitors include both cables, you won't need to buy any extras, CPU is about 15% more powerful as well. Also, as you said it was for Graphic design, so I'd guess most likely for Photoshop, therefore you'd really REALLY benefit from a SSD, which I have included in this build

Video Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB Video Card  ($129.65 @ OutletPC) 
Case: Cooler Master N200 MicroATX Mid Tower Case  ($34.99 @ Newegg)
