Hi everyone,

I am looking to buy a secondary monitor for my set up, I currently have a 780ti graphics card.

I aim to use one monitor mainly but when gaming I would love to be able to have my games running on my main monitor and my secondary monitor having web browsing, football on in the background etc, basically normal everyday functioning.

How easy is this to set up? Is there a noob guide etc?
 
Ahh brilliant,

although say I am playing BF4, i want to quickly check a web page on the 2nd monitor, how does the mouse function? Obviously it is controlling myself in BF4 but would the mouse icoon just drag over to the secondary monitor or would this be affecting my current gaming session?

Also I am looking at my main monitor being 144hz and the secondary being 120hz, this is OK?
 
Thanks everyone, sounds fairly simple!

The monitor I am looking at buying is 144hz and will make this my gaming monitor, the current monitor is 120hz so will become my secondary :)
