> I need a new video card, that can drive four monitors.

I have exactly that setup.  Nvidia gtx980 - or pretty much any modern
nvidia with the right connectors - just works.  IIRC that's been the
case since the 700 series.

Don't be afraid to get a card with DP connectors, the adapters work
just fine as long as you get active ones and not passive ones.
Exception - if you need dual-link dvi, make sure the card you choose
has dual-link dvi.  I prefer DP for those monitors though.
