you could have 2 presets. one default and the other for gaming and alternating by the click of a button. then down the line you can add another card. with 2 nvidia cards you should be able to get some decent fps. with 3 should be able to get max.
edit:
a gamer would get 2 cards first. a non-gamer would get the monitors first.
7970s blow away 680s at this high of resolution because of how they process... i would not use Nvidia cards for this high of resolution (though i do have to admit that i tend to line Nvidia cards better)... since AMD uses what i like to call "brute force processing", it can just force its way through that many pixels, wile since Nvidia uses fancy coding techniques and less cores, they don't do so well (but are much better at lower resolutions)

3x 27s for gaming would require 3-4 7970s (maybe you could get away with 2x 6GB 7970s, but idk for sure)... it is a crazy number of pixels to push, so yah

@OP... what remix said about having two profiles is a good point... infact it is what i do, and i just didnt even think to mention it
