VGA = D-Sub, so for that connector on your motherboard you just need a VGA to VGA cable.

The other motherboard connector is HDMI, so you'll want an HDMI to DVI connector.

But my setup will be fine for running both monitors on non graphically intense things?

Yeah. Ideally, you would want a vid card for running two monitors, but for just spreadsheet crap, you should be fine.


/e Things like the power supply, RAM etc. don't have any affect on this. The motherboard only determines which cables you need. The CPU, or in your case the APU determines the graphics power your computer has.
You won't be running games on two monitors, that's for sure. :)
