[SOLVED] 3 144hz monitors on a 1070 Ti

[NoahPDK]

As the title says should I be able to use 3 144hz monitors on my 1070 Ti? I am planning on playing games like Dirt Rally 2.0 and Assetto Corsa on Surround. Will my GPU bee able to handle it or should I consider buying a Samsung 49" 144hz monitor instead?

At what resolution?
Spanning the game across three panels (obviously) increases the demand on the GPU.

From a quick Google search, a 1070TI can do 60-75FPS at 1080p on Ultra settings. Updates have probably optimized that some over time.

A 1070TI is probably going to struggle to push 144FPS to align with your refresh rate at anything better than medium settings - and that's with a single panel. With a triple monitor setup, 1080p..... I think you're going to struggle to come anywhere near 144Hz

yeah i will be running 1080p, and they are 27”. and do you think a 49” will be to demanding too?

A 49" Ultrawide (32:9, 3840x1080) is 4,147,200 pixels.
3x 16:9 1920x1080 is 6,220,800 pixels.

So a 49" Ultrawide only requires 67% of the pixels to be driven.....it would be a little easier than 3x setup, but I'd fully expect it to remain too demanding for a 1070TI.

Even if i still use 1080p? i would like to use it just as a ultrawide monitor, i don’t have the needs for 4k.

Ultrawide changes the resolution. If you run 1080p (16:9, 1920x1080) on a 49" Ultrawide, you'll have black bars on either side of a basic 16:9 1080p display.... which defeats the purpose.

The only 49" Samsung Ultrawide monitors I can find are 32:9.... 3840x1080.
