Monitor Upgrade for 980Ti

[nichpas]

I have a 980 Ti. I have 2 144hz 1080p monitors currently. I am wondering what I should upgrade to for my 980 Ti? Should I get another 144Hz 1080p? The 2 I have are 24". Or should I go for a 27"" WQHD Monitor? I have only ever gamed on TN panels but I like the fast refresh rates. Help! Thanks

I would get a third and configure them in surround. Moving to a 144hz ips 1440p monitor like Acer XB270HU would be the only significant upgrade without losing response time. Otherwise, your gpu can handle 3x 1080p monitors so I would go with that.

Do most games support surround? I play pretty close to my monitors on my desk so I am concerned that it will be to difficult to constantly pan my head to see everything. If I were to go to 1440p I would want a monitor for sure that can go over 60Hz.

Also Im curious is there a big improvement going from 1080p on a 24" to 1440p on a 27"? Because that is what I would have to do. Also I don't want to go to 4K because its just too new/expensive and I'd need another Ti lol.

I like the 1440P upgrade, the 27" screen will be more immersive.
Keep the two 24" monitors as side monitors. Some games or FSX may let you use them, but I don't think there are that many triple monitor games.
The side monitors will have little impact if they hold relatively static pages such as email or monitors.
