Usually you will need a "dongle" converting vga>dvi so you can plug it in, most video cards come with on vga connector and one dvi connector. Dunno if many cards come with 2 vga connectors which is the standard monitor connector.

The display i think you can select between showing the same thing on both screens or extending your desktop to the second monitor so you get more workspace basically.
