I know nvidia cards aren't capable of running 3 monitors but i would like to use 2 without disconnecting cables. I have 2 dell monitors hooked up via dvi and 1 lcd tv hooked up with a (mini) hdmi cable. I would like to run 2 of the dell screens together or 1 dell screen and the lcd tv without unplugging cables on the back of my videocard every time. Is there a solution to this?
 
Any solution to this? it's getting annoying unhooking one dvi and inserting a hdmi cable when i want to watch a movie. After that taking the hdmi out and inserting the dvi cable in again..
 
not possible: the second dvi port is wired to the hdmi port.

You could try the iGpu.

Is it possible to connect my 2nd monitor on the intergrated graphics of my i5 2500k then? And connect my main monitor and hdmi monitor on my gtx460?
 
I got it functional now.

Main monitor and tv on my GTX 460 (dvi and hdmi)
Second monitor on my HD3000 (dvi)

If i can play a 1080p video on my second monitor (hd3000) i can assume the full hardware acceleration is working right?
