In projector mode (only the 120hz dvi monitor on) the lightboost test works fine and maintains 120. Does this mean if I game on extended mode even though I am only gaming on one of the 120 hz monitors with lightboost that it will not work because the hdmi one is on? must i only game in projector mode with the hdmi one off to achieve the lightboost effect?

That test can have problems with multiple monitors if the refresh rates don't match. That might also affect some games if you're using vsync. Multiple monitors work best when all the monitors are running at the same exact refresh rate.

dont even know if its compatible with the 780/asus vg248qe but i read it does 120 hz

If your GTX 780 has DisplayPort, then yes, you can use that to get 120 Hz and LightBoost with the VG248QE.

then plug the asus vg248qe into it?

No, don't use adapter cables. The VG248QE supports DisplayPort directly.
