Edit I see you know that already you need a dual graphics card i believe... sorry if im not providing right info here...

Im using only PCI graphics card, not onboard default ones. The ports on the graphics card are; HDMI, DVI-I and VGA

You cannot use DVI and HDMI at the same time, has to be either DVI/VGA or HDMI/VGA, The card has one digital signal and one analog.

Also partly incorrect; a switch would not allow for desktop extension with multiple monitors.

Its not incorrect? Only did some quick reaserch on the card buts its only capable of outputting one digital signal at once?

Whether or not this is true (I can't find any information on it), when using a DVI -> VGA adaptor, the DVI signal is using DVI-A, the analog version of DVI, since you can't convert DVI-D to VGA like that.
