I currently have a 30" ACD connected to my PC via a dual link DVI graphics card.

I'm about to inherit a second and third 30" ACD, and wondered what I would need in terms of PC and graphics card to support this setup?

One problem is that the old dual link card I have now is so big it blocks 3 slots in the PC.

Can anyone recommend a card and a PC where this wouldn't be a problem?

The setup is obviously crazy but will be used for trading so will get some use :)
 
the easiest thing would be to buy an AMD Eyefinity card, at least one of them is supposed to have 6 Mini-Displayport outputs. Then connect three MiniDP to dual link DVI adapters.

Edit: look at for instance the AMD 6950, it has two dual link DVI ports and two miniDP ports so you'll only need one of those adapters.
