Question about tri monitor setups

Hey guys.. for my new system I'm wanting to have a 3 monitor setup. I have a question: is this possible to do from one video card?

The video card I'm getting is: EVGA GeForce GTX760 FTW with ACX Cooler 4GB GDDR5 256Bit Dual-Link DVI-I DVI-D HDMI DP SLI Ready

I realize that it only has two DVI ports... but is it possible to hook up a 3rd monitor via the HDMI port, or possibly another method? Or will I need to get a 2nd video card and do SLI?

Thanks for any info guys!
 
it is perfectly fine to hook 3 monitors into one video card... however if you are trying to game on all 3 at once i recommend getting someting more powerful with 3 or 4gb of ram.

triple the monitors means triple the pixels and you want something more powerful to process them faster. may i recommend this?

then i recommend a monitor that comes with displayport built in as it is better than hdmi & dvi. that single video card supports 3 of them. one of the only ones that does.

He's getting the version with 4 Gigs of VRAM.

Although if you are gaming, VRAM isn't everything. For gaming, a GTX 970 would be !much better
