    Okay...so you're planning going from 1440p to what resolution?  What are your minimum FPS expectations?

    Hello,
     
    in general, if you were to add another 2 Swift PG279Q displays it will work fine. However in terms of Nvidia Surround performance, it will be lackluster.
     
    Even with 2 way SLI 980ti's you would still need to run a few settings lower or much lower depending on game optimization.

    They could handle it, but you will need to cut graphics down substantially to maintain FPS in the 144+ range. Triple monitors on FPS's is actually not as great as it sounds, the peripheral vision isn't as helpful as you would imagine since most of it is blurred or skewed. If you are really looking for the bleeding edge equipment to increase your competition scores, you should look into the BenQ XL2540 240Hz monitor... Or you could wait out for the Asus PG258Q.

    Agree with statements above. I've tried spanning across my 3 PG278Q on BF and looking pretty for a while, but not playable for long periods... your also have to get use to low FPS.

    I own 980 ti kingpins in SLI
