Hello! Faced such a problem, I decided to connect a second monitor, when I turned on the xdmi port on the motherboard (b450 steel legend) - nothing happened! I decided to look for a solution on the Internet, I found several English-language videos in which it is told how to enable the multimonitor function through the BIOS. But I did not find such a function in my BIOS. There is a column for selecting the main monitor, but it is not active. I have a BIOS version 3.20. Also, to enable this function on the video, the dude switches to the extended BIOS functionality when you press the f6 key, I don't have that. Help!)

If I understand correctly, my processor does not have a graphics core, so the second monitor will not work?

Connect the second monitor to the RTX 2060, not the motherboard.
