Using the card for 1 or 2 monitors will decrease the performance IF you are using this card for cuda processing is the take. For instance, i bought a cheap gt120 card 2 years ago to run the displays, but then had a gtx285 card running for PPro to take advantage of cuda and it flew. When i used the 285 for a display card as well, there was a bit of performance hit, since it had to do double duty. YMMV.
