I'm currently running four big monitors on an ATI Radeon HD, so if you
can fit three of those cards into a box, that 's 12 monitors right off
the bat, and you could probably add some DP splitters to get more.

I've tried a matrox card.  In theory, it can drive up to 12 monitors
with four triple-head-to-go adapters, but it had some driver issues that
kept me from using it (mostly dealing with vlc and youtube) and they
didn't officially (or actually, when I reported bugs) support the
version of Fedora I was running anyway.

But, if they happen to support the version of the kernel you're running,
and you don't need 3D or video, they're a good choice, although multiple
HD cards would probably be cheaper.
