If you didn't SLI, the first card would operate 2 monitors (presumably the outer two) with the card running at 16x. Then one card running the middle monitor running at 8x. It's not perfect, and would be horribly ineffcient if the cards COULD SLI, but it would have equal performance on the three monitors.
Adittionally, if you gave the middle monitor more GPU time, and better performance, i don't think anyone would notice or really care. It would work well regardless of how it's configured.
