Nope. A 5770 has 3 display controllers built onto the Juniper chip, Which allows it to handle 3 displays simultaniously. GF114 has only 2 controllers so no matter how many display outputs the card has on the rear I/O, You can only run 2 monitors at the same time.

+1

ALL Nvidia cards can run a max of 2 displays, if you want 3 you need to go SLI.
EDIT: Except the GTX 295 - you learn something everyday.

The GTX 295 can run 3 displays but it has 2 GPUs.

And it's old tech, but fair enough, my mistake.
