Multi monitor support

Hello All.

 

i am looking to add a third monitor. I currently have a Gtx 660. I have two monitors connected to the DVI ports. I have an HDMI and Displayport available. I could also just use HDMI for my main screen if that will work. i have been looking into this on my own as i have never had more than two monitors. I am seeing information about "active" and "passive" adapters. I do not want to use surround, I just want three monitors for productivity. Any assistance would be appreciated, Thanks.
