Hey y'all! So when my (now) ex left she left her 24" monitor and keyboard and such. Years ago I used to know a thing or two about pcs (built one or two) but its been a long long while. When I open a new tab it takes forever to load etc. Id like to add another monitor so how do I even find out if my video card could handle that? I'm on windows 10 I think...tell me how to post the specs on my pc and I will. I believe its only got 8g of ram...just don't know what kind of or how to upgrade etc.

Spanks!!
