The second point is that I don't want to spend much Both the nv(4) and x11/nvidia-driver drivers support multi-head.

It shouldn't matter what cards/slots you put the video cards in, X.org supports multi-head configurations with different and similar cards. The only problem I've seen is with motherboards that have onboard video, I've not been able to use both the onboard video and a video card at the same time. -- Rick C. Petty
