I purchase a Inspiron with Slim case, video card nvidia 8300 GS, this one has a DVI and a VGA but can be used at the same time.
So, if i want to have dual monitor without changing hardware, could i buy this cable :

and using Ultramon i'm going to be able to have a expanded monitor, or only the same mirrored ?
Or i need to buy another video card ?
Thanks to anyone who can answer this. I'm really stuck here.

The answer is in the product description "DVI-D Splitter replicates single output into two outputs". You're not going to get something that can turn 1 DVI output into 2 unique outputs for only $2: That would be more like $200+ for something like the Matrox DualHead2Go Digital Edition.
If you have a desktop PC, and want dual DVI, then a new dual-DVI video card is probably the best/cheapest way to go.
