We are developing a simulator, and require to run visuals on 3 monitors.

We can run a single instance and also can run multiple instance of the visual.

Is there any way to run all the three monitors from a single computer???

The possible solutions i have got are 1. Running multiple graphics cards 2. Running card like ATI 5870 with eye inifinity.

The problem with 2nd solution is that in India, we dn't get monitors with display ports.

Any suggestion will be really helpful..

You will need to SLI/Crossfire multiple graphics cards if the graphics cards do not have multiple VGA/DVI ports.

In the US it is simple; make sure that the the graphics card has multiple ports.

Check out Matrox TripleHead2Go, it simulates a very wide display, split to three monitors.

If you want to go the one graphics card route, then you can get a DisplayPort -> DVI converter. However, from doing this myself, I'd recommend having a motherboard with 2 PCI-E slots (like for Crossfire/SLI), and getting two identical cards, and just using it for the multiple outputs.

If the motherboard in your computer has on board graphics then you might only need a single discrete graphics card, as modern motherboards with onboard ATI graphics can hybrid-crossfire to a discrete graphics card. I've got this set up on my desktop and it can support 4 monitors.
