Mid 2012 1280x800 MBP 13" External Monitor Support

I have a Mid-2012 non-retina Macbook Pro (intel HD4000, i5-3210M@2.5GHz) which I'm hoping to hook up to two 1920x1080 external monitors and I'm wondering if there is support for this before I go and invest in the hardware.


As you may know, the model sports two USB 3.0's and one thunderbolt/mini display port. Right now I have it hooked up to one external monitor at 1920x1080(60Hz) via MDP->HDMI and I'm wondering if it would be possible to hook up a second external monitor via USB.


Does this model support 2 full HD external monitors - one via thunderbolt out and one via USB 3.0 out in non-mirror mode(i.e larger desktop resolution)?


FWIW the 5400RPM HDD has been swapped out which would decrease system power load and heat production. This simply addresses possible heat concerns.

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)
