Yeah, although four monitors won't work too well for nVidia Surround.
If you just want a larger Windows desktop, I believ you can just use a second nVidia card. It can be a cheap 8400GS, or 9600GT if you desire. But games will not run on all three monitors, just your primary one.
If you want a game to run on three monitors using nVidia Surround, then you need two matching cards in SLI. I'd tread carefully. I've been playing with Surround, and haven't been too thrilled with the results. Plus, it's very finicky about the monitors you use and their refresh rates, and sync polarities. I spent quite a lot of time researching my options, and I'm thinking I'll be returning my third monitor because of the hassles.
