Two gpu's for 2 different monitors

[Noob1337]

i have an i7 3770k and a GTX 1050 TI

Unfortunately, you can't. Once you use a PCIe video card to output signal, the iGPU gets disabled and your mobo's integrated video outs won't output anything.

but when i unplug the cable from the gtx to the mobo its works

idk

what WereCat said;)

[knightslugger]

you can absolutely still use the iGPU for video processing. You just have to force enable it in your BIOS. 

[Noob1337]

Kinda just put in the gpu, put in hdmi/dp or w/e, run driver >> good to go...

It just works. I use it like you want to myself. 2 monitors to GPU and 1 monitor to iGPU.

Just turn on igpu in the bios. I used it on every rig. Even with my 3770k and my saber tooth board. No reason it wouldn't work.
