Do you want to game on all three at a time, or will you game on one and have the other two for other stuff?

Just get two 32 inches, you can have one window in half, same with twitch, and a full screen of a game.

Then you'll be fine. The other two shouldnt cause problems

 

However: don't waste your money getting 3 144hz displays if you're only gaming on one.

I cant find 3 monitors that look the same while one is 144hz and others 60

Why would the side monitors need to be 144Hz in that case?

You could probably save a ton of money by just getting 60Hz side monitors, plus you can get an IPS monitor too; which have superior viewing angles to TN panels (which 144Hz typically are, but of course not all aren't)

Why do they need to look the exact same? They'll be symmetrical so it'll look fine regardless

I got 3 27in 1440p monitors with 2 of them being higher color quality IPS panels and 1 144Hz panel. If you try to game on all 3 it will tank your performance worse than 4K does but just gaming on one with 2 monitors for auxiliary usage you wont notice any impact. As far as not looking the same it doesn't really matter because you're not using all three to game on so bezels are not a real concern because you stop noticing it after a week or two.

They're older and subsequently obsolete but they're 1 BenQ XL2730z for gaming, 2 BenQ GW2765 for more screen space
