Is it possible to connect three monitors to two video cards?

Hello!
There is a PC with the following configuration:
Mat. board: Gigabyte 970a-ds3p
Processor: AMD FX 4300
Video card: Nvidia GeForce 210 1024 Mb (DVI + HDMI + VGA)
Windows 7 x64
Two monitors are connected to the PC - VGA and HDMI outputs are used.
Task: Connect a third monitor.
I connect a third monitor to the DVI output, it is detected in Windows, but you can’t extend the desktop to it - one of the outputs works: either DVI or VGA.
Q: How to connect a third monitor?
I am considering installing a second similar video card, since the motherboard has two PCI-E slots. Will it be possible to extend the desktop to a third screen in this case?

Well, first of all, it was impossible to connect three monitors for invisibles (at that time, on those cards), only two.
Second, it's written in the nVidia control panel.
Third - Ubuntu, Geforce 210 and two monitors?
Fourth,

I am considering installing a second similar video card
in general, any will do, even the cheapest.
