I searched a lot and found out that with a triple monitor set up that the two outer monitors that are "half rendered/stretched" basically two screens stretched to fit on three

My question is that if I get two monitors instead of three will there be no "stretching"?

If not how can I have multiple monitors and not have "stretching"

You can have three displays and have your game only show full-screen on one.

If you want your game to span all two or three displays, some manual tweaking might be required to correct the aspect ratio in games that support doing so but fail to adjust correctly on their own. For games that cannot scale their viewport correctly to fit odd aspect ratios and have no facilities to correct it, your options are to either play using whatever stretch you got or go single display.

The problem with a dual monitor setup is.. you WILL have the long bezel down the middle. With a triple, you will just have them off towards the side.

There is another alternative you have yet to consider. A Super Widescreen Monitor. Depending on which size you get, that single monitor could replace a dual or triple setup.
