How to connect six monitors to one computer?

Given: one computer, six monitors.
It is necessary: ​​to display on five monitors in a constant mode on each its own picture, and on the sixth to display one of these five pictures by choice, carried out, roughly speaking, by clicking.
In terms of hardware, it is supposed to take a motherboard with the ability to install several video cards, install three video cards (two outputs on each), but how to implement it in software is not entirely clear.
The project is still only in my head, so the hardware is not the final version.
If there are any solutions, I will be glad to see them. Thank you.

Distribution amplifier + scalers = but it is very expensive.
Cards with a large number of slots or external cards (for example, USB 3.0 HIS Multi-View)

AMD has such technology - Eyefinity. And there are video cards with the ability to connect 6 monitors (I heard that there are also 12).
As an example:
www.amd.com/ru/products/desktop/graphics/ati-radeo...
Several video cards are a hassle. And you correctly noticed - "how to implement it programmatically is not entirely clear."
In general, dig towards AMD video cards with 6 outputs.
What is a task anyway?

The person basically asks about software.
But I will also answer on the hardware - what I know: AMD cards standardly allow you to connect 3 monitors per card, if the number of connectors allows (even on inexpensive cards)
Although at the same time, nVidia allows you to connect only 2 monitors per card, even if the connectors 3 or more (don't count certain higher priced nvidia models)
