Can I plug 1 of my monitors into my mobo and my other monitor into my GPU?

[Smiles4Miles]

I have a 1060 6gb gpu. i have one of my monitors hooked up into it rn, but I have an old monitor that uses vga, and cant connect to the 1060 without an adapter. It can go into my mobo though. So, is there any way to make this work?

then it will work to plug it into both at the same time?

check the BIOS if integrated GPU is enabled, but it should be usually enabled by default

[WereCat]

by the way, what CPU do you have? Does it even have an iGPU?

As long as your CPU has an integrated GPU, yes. If you have an FX, Xeon, or Ryzen CPU, this will not be possible.

yes you can, but in some games this will causes trouble. simple 2d games like issac will looping video output that gives very low fps.
