Is this possible?

Can I run 2 video cards in the same comp for use with a second monitor? Just a thought I had and didnt know if it was possible.

Yes, its certainly possible. If your current AGP video card only has one monitor connection, it is common practice to pick up a cheap PCI video card to use to run the second monitor.
