I have 4 monitors on a fedora 27 box but with 2 graphics cards, built-in
Intel and GeForce add-on, Intel and nouveau drivers respectively.

I run them Zaphod-head style, i.e. independent screens, but before I
configured them this way (my own xorg.conf), running startx had them as
one screen (no xorg.conf).

A 3 monitor setup on a graphics cards that supports it should be
possible, emphasis on the should.
