Getting a 2nd video card will not help at all, unless you have a video card that can do Crossfire, which does not include the 9000 series
(A full list can be found here: http://www.ati.com/technology/crossf...ldyourown.html).
EDIT: Oops, see post below.

Take a look at the back of your video card.
If it has the standard VGA monitor port and a DVI port that looks like this:

Then you can do a dual monitor setup with an adapter like this:

If you don't have the 2 ports, then get a different video card that has 2 ports.

Anyways, back to the topic:

I've never managed to find anything good in the trash, most likely because I've never bothered to look. I guess I should start looking occasionally, though, since it appears as if many people throw out good stuff.

You can use multiple video cards for multiple monitors, they will not combine thier computing power for one monitor like crossfire.
