Graphics card for a 3 monitor setup

Hi,

Which graphics cards supporting 3 monitors are recommended for linux? are 3 monitors supported by Xfce?.

Asus has the GT710 and GT730 but it's not clear if they are fully supported in linux.

Thanks

How do I confirm that the GT710 or GT730 are also fully supported?.
Any special reason to prefer the P1000 over the latter two (except for the 4 monitor support)?.

Plug'em in and see? More web searching?

The P100 uses mini display port. So if you don't have the cables, that's additional cost.
Depends on your usage. Are you a gamer?

I don't own any of the cards so buying & then finding out they're incompatible is a waste of money,
Not a gamer, need the extra screen space for productivity.
