I can't quite tell from the description? I used a product similar to[URL="http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/VIDU2DVIA/"] this [/URL]for a while to attach a monitor to my MB Pro via the USB port. It worked pretty well and did not seem to push my gpu. I think the processing was done in the little box. At one point I had the laptop screen, an external monitor connected to the Mac video port and a second monitor connected to a product similar to this all going at once. @mydearwatson I can't speak for the Matrox support team but if the NewerTech gadgets look like an option give OWC a call.
