If you are asking if a 1080Ti can run triple 2K monitors at 144Hz... It's a subjective question... Yes, it can work... at 50FPS. Pretty much no reason to even run monitors over 60Hz lol
It's not subjective at all. They would all run fine at that resolution and Hz. You're mistaking game FPS for the screen refresh rate. There's a lot of reasons to run a screen at a higher than 60hz refresh rate. Why would you argue otherwise?
It's subjective in the fact that you just called out that there are a lot of reasons to run a screen over 60Hz. Also, it would be nice to keep it within the context of the scope of what I was talking about, running 50FPS in games and that's being generous with this set-up. It's been proven into the ground that refresh rate has benefits, but you have to have the hardware to push the frame rate to fully utilize the potential of the refresh rate. Were talking about a GTX 1080Ti running games at 7680x1440p, i'm not sure you could accurately test 144Hz vs 60Hz with the frame rates the OP will get. I'm not sure where you are going with this?
My reasons for using a screen over 60hz are not subjective. They are objective and factual. You know yourself there are advantages to a higher refresh rate. Thanks for asking what they are prior to characterizing them. 
Question 1:
Can I run 3 Dell S-Series 27-Inch Screen LED-Lit Gaming Monitor (S2719DGF); QHD (2560 x 1440) up to 155 Hz; 16:9; monitors on an EVGA GeForce GTX1080TI FTW3? Question 2:
"Want to game in 2K @ at least 144hz?" That's what he posted. I am not sure where you are going. And as I am critiquing your context (scope means the same thing) as you asserted 'there is pretty much no reason to run monitor over 60hz lol' as if ridiculing the entire idea. Given that, I would assert I am clearly staying within the context of your post. As far as just running the desktop and applications, they would work fine. Again, the only issue would be in trying to games across all 3, which does not seem to be his question but your assumption.So just to be clear, the OP asked about connecting up three monitors which he can do and run and their native refresh. Secondarily he asks about running at 2K at 144hz. We'd have to know what titles he asking about. CS:GO is certainly doable. But according to you, it's absurd a gamer would play at over 60hz...or did I take that out of context?
