Yeah, you dont need anything fancy to drive the second monitor. I run a Radeon 8500 to drive my primary, and a 5 year old 4mb POS Matrox I had lying around to drive the second. Works like a charm--I run it at 1280x1024, 32 bit color, 70hz refresh and dont see any slowing down at all. Since most anything that will really use a graphics card hard (read: games) is going to use the primary monitor, the secondary card doesnt matter as much.
My advice? Like Dilbert said, go find a cheap used PCI card somewhere (eBay maybe?).
