Multi-monitor Setup

All,
I'm looking at getting a third 27" screen and I need some recommendations on an affordable GPU to use with them. I'd prefer it to be a single card if possible and it needs to be able to run native res on all of them (16:9, 2560x1440). I don't think my GTX670 will handle them all unless I go SLI.

Before anyone has a go at Dell, I've owned four of them so far, and I've had no problems. No dead pixels or anything. Monitor brand/model/latency isn't the issue for me, I just need to know a good card that'll handle three monitors well. I currently have two of the older model Dells and I'll probably get the latest non-touch version (P2714H).

It's unlikely I'll be using them for multi-monitor gaming, it's more for having multiple apps running fullscreen. My GTX670 handles 2560x1440 gaming on one screen just fine.

I am a huge fan of Dell monitors. Your 670 should support 3 monitors.

Especially if you aren't really going to game with them.
