Would 2 monitors be playable @60fps?

You can't play on two monitors.

If there ever is a 790 hopefully it does have more VRAM

so you wanna tell me a 4k monitor is harder to run games at than 3 1440p monitors? *sigh*

Real programmers don't document, if it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.

no I said I wanted a surround experience and 3 4k monitors would be nearly impossible to run

just get 3 1080p

you will regret getting 3 1440p monitors

you will run games at a really medium to low settings to get smooth fps

unless you are getting a g-sync monitor

Its a great monitor but not for using 3 at once! Either go for 1x1440 or 3x1080 with the thinnest bezel possible.
