I want to run a total of 4 displays (3 Monitors / 1 TV) all at 4K and I want them to function at 60FPS consistently. Is this possible? What monitors should I buy, what TV should I buy, and what graphics cards should I buy? Here is a picture of my setup idea. Let me know if you can't see the picture. Hey so I want to run displays 2 & 3 extended from desktop 1 which is mirrored to the TV.

Smells like a 1080 sli to me. Still not sure if 2 of these will be able to run 4 4k displays (in extended view)
If you plan on all of them showing the same thing, then one gtx 1080 would be enough

(By the way we can't see the picture. Just post it on imageshack or something like that and paste the link here)
 


depends, if he wants an extended view not even the new titan x in sli can't obtain 60 fps on 4 4k displays.
 
I cannot see your setup link or...
What is your application for this?
Is the TV just an extra monitor or do you plan on 4k tv content.

If you are talking about triple monitor 4k gaming , you will need serious graphics muscle. Dual Titan X pascal might not do it.

For simple display output ,like for a stock trading setup, much less is needed. At 60fps, you will want monitors that have DP inputs. That is necessary to get 60hz, and that is what top cards generally output.

With 4 units, You may have visibility and field of view issues.
4k text is very small so if you are using 24" monitors you may have readability issues.

OTOH, if you use 40" monitors, text size is good but that requires lots of desktop/wall space.
 
OK so I want to have a 3 monitor setup, with the middle screen being the primary monitor, and also mirror that primary to a 4K tv. I know I can do this, I am currently doing it with 1080 monitors and TV. Need the best products for this though.
