Hey, at the moment I have dual monitors and want to add another. I currently have GeForce GTX 260 and Asus P5Q-E connected to two monitors. the gtx is connected via the blue pci slot
My question is, what card do I need to buy to add another? What PCI slots e.g x?
Can i buy another cheap x16 card?
thanks

If you buy a graphics card that fits any of the slots it should work fine (as long as you don't want to play games at full detail on every monitor.

The other option is 1 new card, I think 3 and 4 outputs can be had pretty easily now.

This board supports x-fire i think.
you could run 2x ati gfx cards (like 5770 - cheap now) giving 4x dvi outputs.

Plus the newish ati cards support eyefinity.
