Not entirely the same. Though EVGA are releasing a GTX570 that can support 3 monitors on one card, which Nvidia don't do natively with their cards, so it's a custom EVGA card, but to get a game to span all 3 monitors, I think only 3D Vision Surround does that. There might be a way to do it without 3D surround, I'm not sure as I've not properly looked in to it.
