Will a single GTX 1080 be enough for triple monitor?

So I am thinking of doing a triple monitor setup with this monitor: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Curved-27-Inch-Monitor-C27F591/dp/B01CX26VNC I already have one from Christmas but I have yet to build my PC. I was wondering if a single 1080 could handle three of these or would I have to go with 2 of them? I will link my build below

Welcome to the Triple Monitor Gaming Club!

 

If that's your intention... 

 

Yes, the single GTX 1080 will be more than sufficient for 5760x1080 with [at least] 60Hz in every game that I can think of except Deus Ex: MD.

A friend of mine play GTA V on 3 monitors with his 1060 at 60FPS at all high settings, so you should be more than fine with a 1080.

Unpopular opinion inbound:

 

I hate Crysis 3...

 

I said it! 

 

And you can drop the graphics to high and achieve 60Hz minimums.

3 x 1080p = 4k - 1080p

 

So it will handle it about 25% better than 4k.... in theory.

Wondering can a single 1080 run a triple 1440p monitor at over 60 fps? On games like Battlefield 1.

I only own two recent games so I can't say how many it can but I can say what bf1 does. 

 

Used to get an average of 120 or so on ultra at 1440. With the recent patches that went down a bit. I see 90's sometimes. But CPU usage went down and that was a real problem before.
