MULTI VIDEO CARDS

I'm getting a new desktop Pc just for Vjing, and I've been wondering which would be the best way to work with multiple outputs.

I really don't know If I can install 2 or 3 video cards, so I need some help with it. I made a couple of schemes of what I thoght it would be possible. Is it? or not?

Any suggestions about which cards, motherboard, HD or whatever are welcome.
Thanx

Im working with two video Cards. One VGA for Work Screen and two Composite outputs for Beamer.
output one is Layer 1,2,3,+ effects and output 2 is Layer 3 direct.
When I move the opacity for layer 3 to zero the File is routed without the Clip effect directly to output 2. When opacity is set to 1 or 2 the Clip effect is routed to Output 2 (seems to be a Bug, but works pretty fine)
But you should use a Crosspoint to route the different Signals to different beamers......
