The cards don't have to be the same. Honestly, once you plug it in... just Right click on desktop and goto properties. Goto "Settings" and if you don't see two monitors there, then something is wrong. Just clicking on the monitors and it should prompt you if you want to extend to that desktop or something. It's been awhile since I've done it - that's on my 'want back again' for my next new computer. ;-)
