I have three or four displays attached to two different nvidia GPUs. I have noticed that a nouveau driven setup handles window management much more sanely, and provides adequate 3D support for my purposes. The easiest way I've found to configure is by creating an xorg.conf with nvidia-settings, then adjusting manually or replacing with open drivers as desired.
However, if you're looking at gnome for this setup, you'll want one of the cards that support more than two displays, like the matrox or ati ones mentioned above, because mutter, gnome's new window manager/compositor, doesn't play nice with multiple X screens.
