If you want to run 3 or more monitors with 2 video cards you cannot use crossfire or sli.
SLI or crossfire mode will only support one output. that is why you will need to use triplehead2go, so you can get the resolution necessary to display three monitors.

I don't think it would be necessary to go with 2x nvidia 280's. 2- 4870's with 2gig ram will be a much better deal and work great in xfire mode. also check out the 4850x2 or 4870x2,

tom's hardware just did a nice review of the best video cards for december and they said the 280 is a little expensive for the money considering how good some of the cheaper cards are.
