Duplicate Screens and GPU Stress?

So I've been using more than one monitor for a long time now, but I've never really used the duplicate feature a whole lot. My friend and I are setting up something where we're going to need to show the same image on both a monitor and one or two TV displays during heavy gaming. Will this cause a heavy strain on the video card, or since it's cloning the image at the same 1920x1080 resolution, will it be unnoticeable?
Would it matter what output combinations are used?

Thanks for any insight.
 
Should be unnoticeable. Reading a frame buffer out of RAM doesn't stress a GPU very much given the amount of aggregate bandwidth.
