I would just like to know if there's some kind of port or a special capability that you need.

No, just a normal one with DVI and or HDMI.

The DVI port would need to be a dual linked DVI port; each "link" operates at 60Hz. Most monitors will have this. The HDMI port will need to be version 1.4b or 2.0.

Assuming they are powerful GPUs capable of rendering over 60 frames per second, you will want a 120Hz monitor.

I have two 60hz monitors and they both work just fine with my SLi setup.

Nope, though you want a beefy display or multiple (in Eyefinity/Surround) to justify multiple graphics cards in the first place though.
