Do you mean w/o a vid card?

/e The motherboard has an HDMI and a Display Port, but unlike a vid card, I believe they both will show the same image, using the built in Intel grfx.

Pretty sure you will need a vid card for 2+ screens.

well i probably sound very nooby lol but it is my first build ever, my goal is to have 2 big screens running at the same time, being able to run both as 1 screen or both as indavidual screens off the same card, but im confused if i need to worrie about the motherboard or if all computers can run duel screens with the video card, but i was reading sometimes you need multipul video cards, also it is going to be i7

It's up to the vid card, not the motherboard.

/e ...and like Mason said, just about every modern vid card can run 3 screens, without hassle.
