Some are IPS and some are TN, if anyone could give me pros and cons of IPS vs TN that would be helpfull too.

 

I dont mind that some dont have VESA compatibility as they are just going on a desk and look nice as they are.

 

I dont really want to be spending over £210 each either

 

Side note, I currently only have a 750Ti but am either going to get a 770 soon or get the 870 when it comes, if it comes that is.

 

Thanks for any help

IPS is best, even the best TN panel is worse then the worst IPS panel for color representation and viewing angles. Viewing angles are sort of important for surround gaming

I was thinking this, but don't IPS panels have higher response time?

A 770 isn't going to be able to push 5760x1080p you need two 780/290 and 870 is just speculation but it's likely it doesn't have a large memory bus like most Nvidia cards so AMD would be the best choice with their superior multi monitor support and a higher memory bandwidth on their cards.

as long as it's lower than 10ms, you won't notice it usually

I dont want to be playing games on ULTRA or anything. Would i still be able to play games on a single monitor, or would i be stuck with 3?

You can still play on just one just don't expect to play any new games across all three at high-ultra settings.

Only about 3 years ago i moved from consoles and since then i have had a 580 (amazing card, was a sad day when i died) a 660ti and now the 750ti. Im used to playing games on Low - Medium settings, i prefer fps to graphical quality.

Then I guess there's not much of a problem there then.
