"Yeah no."
Where did OP say anything about SLI? He wants to run a second monitor.
Someone doesn't know what they're talking about and it's not me.

How will it reduce performance? Outside maybe higher temps from having multiple GPUs lowering boost clock it shouldn't affect it at all.
I agree though, it's a bit of waste, but it shouldn't hurt performance unless something's changed in the past few years since I mixed cards.
