You would not be running them in SLI then. They would run seperate. SLI means you are using both cards power to a single set of output. You want to use all the outputs, hence why you cant SLI them.

And for running 6 monitors, I cant help you there, sorry.

And get another regular HD6970 for Crossfire. You'll be set.

No. You can only output to 3 monitors with SLI.
