Graphic card and multi monitor question

Hello all. I'm new to computer gaming and modifications. Pretty much here is a pic of my computer. I'm looking to do dual monitor and game on this PC. The reasons I want dual monitor is so that it will be easy to do my drafting homework, watch Netflix while I do homework and to game if I have any free time lol. I did some reading and found out I may need a new graphic card and I'll need 2 video outputs on the back of my PC. What should I get? I'm on a tight budget. The games I'm looking to play are StarCraft 2, Star Wars Knights of the Republic and Star Trek Online. Any help would be useful. Oh I would like to use my tv and PC monitor for dual monitor. I just hooked my tv up to the PC and everything works fine. The tv would be used for watching movies while the PC monitor would be used for gaming and other things. Like I said I'm on a tight budget. Don't need anything fancy just something BASIC that will function efficiently for what I need done. As time goes on I plan on upgrading my PC to the MAX. I just need something right now that will get me rolling. Thanks.

Oh and yes I am a noob and I lack knowledge of PC so please speak English :) lol I'll probably buy everything off eBay.

Welcome to Computerforum. :)

Yes you are correct you will need a Graphics card that has 2 outputs,Like 2x DVI-D OR DVI-D & HDMI.

As for what graphics card you should get,Depends entirely on how much your wanting to spend...whats your max budget?,Also that system only has a 300W power supply so thats quite limiting choices there.
