If you donÂ’t have an AGP/PCI video card, or an onboard graphics array, there will not be anywhere to plug the monitor in.

well does the asus a7n8x have a place to plug the monitor in ???

No because it has no onboard video like you said.

so you couldnt have dual monitor with that ???

Your monitor support is in your video card. Without a video card or onboard video, you can't use one monitor much less two.

Dual monitors will depend on your video card, so when you do buy one, if you want dual monitors, make sure that the card supports it.
