Connecting More Than Two Monitors

Ok so I know how to connect 2 monitors, but what if I wanted to have a set up similar to this?

What would I need to buy in order to have >2 monitors?

I have 3 monitor setup with 2 6600+ gt's. When i need that 3rd monitor, i switch off sli and use the cards independantly. from what i know, you cant use sli and more than 2 monitors at the same time.
