Is there not the option to set which card is to be used?
If one has a fast GF GTX loaded with cuda cores, and a secondary low profile GF just to drive additional monitors, will AE use the power of the lowest denominator in both?
wouldn't it be more efficient to use all cores from the powerful card, disregarding the low profile one?

After Effects will use all available cores on all cards. The RAM, per card, will be equal to the smallest of the two cards (so if one has 1GB, and one has 2GB, both cards will use 1GB).

Premiere behaves differently but someone else will have to chime in with the details.
