Most stable graphics cards for Multi screen set ups?

If you were going to have six screens 24 inch (yes six) in your lounge, what would be the best graphic cards to use? Generally what is the best set up?

 

I have a Nvidea GTX480, which I must admit seems a very unstable running just two screens. When I bought it I was hoping it would run 3, but you can't run 2 DVI screens and a mini HDMI at the same time.

You should look at the ATI's... if you want that many screens.

you've got a couple choices.

 

ATI's eyefinity(or whatever its called) does a fairly good job of running multiple screens with fewer GPUs

 

NVIDIA would work with multiple cards and a tweak here and there(was fun doing this at work)

 

finally Matrox TripleHead2Go units do a good job too.

 

the right way is going to depend on what you plan on doing with your setup.

I use ATI for mine. The CCC ( control center ) has a built in utility for setting them up super easy.
