You can use 2-6 monitors for Eyefinity, 2 is kinda useless the only ones that work well are 6,5 and 3. the reason these work over 4 or 2 is because the middle of your screen shouldn't have a bezel down the center. If you use 4 then your screen is split in the middle with the bezels and same with 2 screens. The only one this works with is 6 monitors where you can use them in vertical plus horizontal. 3 monitors on two levels works quite nicely. Otherwise stick to 5 or 3 horizontal displays, just so your main screen is un-obstructed with bezels. Definitely get a second GPU if you want to multi-monitor in eyefinity or Nvidia Surround( required dual gpu). The cost sin't that much. Two 6950's will run you about 500 bucks and then 3 Asus V236H will run you around 450. So if you really have 2k to blow I could see this being useful. You could go with a 590 and then rune three nvidia surround 3d monitors to get 3d although it's not really that great. Then just spend the other 1k on mobo CPU and SSD/HDD and PSU + case. Like anti republicans aid you can get some nice deals on cases and that Corsair is a good case.
Whats the point in this? To pretend you are a security guard?
About single cards with multiple GPU's (HD6990 and GTX590(?)), I can only give my subjective opinion as I haven't really put much research into them. Sure they're the fastest single cards in existence, but they also come at a high premium price. From my personal experience they're also prone to failures (a friend's 590 had one of the GPU's die just after warranty expired, GG. That means the whole card is worthless and broken). Generally I'd say stay clear from those, the mainstream high end single GPU's are just more reliable and more affordable.
Odd since the 590 has only been on the market for less than one year.

One is never hurt by being given additional choices, only by taking them away. A QUADRILLION MAGIC FIND is worthless if you can't kill shit!
