I have that same video card and it is dual monitor capable. It has both VGA and DVI ports. You can add a second monitor if it has a DVI connection (it sounds like you are currently using the VGA). I use both the 7300 and 8300 with dual displays.

If your second monitor doesn't have a DVi input, you can buy an inexpensive DVi>VGA adaptor that will allow you to connect the DVi port on the video card to the VGA port on the monitor.
