I know most 500 series cards can only do 2, and can do 3 in SLI.

But I know this is a newer Fermi based card and have read conflicting reports on whether or not it's capable of driving 3 ports by itself?

Thanks,
Aaron
 
Pre 600 series nVidia hard limited cards to no more than 2 outputs per GPU, except for some quadro cards.

Even though the card has 3 outputs(2dvi 1hdmi) the hdmi and the second DVI port may not be used at the same time.
 
The Galaxy MDT series are the only single GPU GeForce cards prior to the 600 series that support more than 2 displays, and they do so with special integrated hardware that splits one or both discreet outputs to multiple screens.

If you're looking for an inexpensive card for triple display gaming, the GTX 650 Ti can do this and will outperform a GTX 560 SE by a fair margin.

What are you wanting to do with it?
