Which Linux out of the box will adequately work with 3 monitors (+- a couple of actions)?

Nvidia 550ti (2 monitors) + built-in intel (1 monitor). In Windows already half a year as everything works with a bang.
Installed Mint. I put the recommended driver on NVidia through the default utility, updated the Intel one from the site.
As a result, the one on the Intel one got out behind the main monitor. When you try to turn on the first of the two monitors on nVidia, it seems that nothing swears, but terrible artifacts appear on this monitor. The second one just won't connect. Writes an error CRT 64 (CRT???).
In the settings window, nVidia still tried to switch the radio button from Intel to nVidia - it gives an empty error.
Duck here. Does it make sense to pick what is, or is it possible to install some other distribution kit (now Linux Mint 17.1 Cinnamon is installed). Or does it even make sense to put an earlier mint?
It is desirable to hear something else from people who have three monitors hanging in the same way (built-in + discrete).

Nvidia 550ti (2 monitors) + built-in intel (1 monitor).

You will have to run at least two copies of X, because work with the same X on different video cards most likely will not work.
Why can't all three monitors be connected to an Nvidia graphics card? Modern nvidia usually have at least three outputs. And it's easy to configure. Naturally, as already advised, you need to put a proprietary blob, because. free modules are still very crooked and do not implement all the capabilities of the video card.
