Need help choosing a display

Frostd

Hello,

 

i have a 3070 and a 10900k, i would like to get a triple display setup 1440p for surround gaming and productivity. Would i be able to handle 11 mill pixels?

Which displays do you guys recommend? Or possible a 4k setup.

 

Best budget displays or a lil bit higher. I dont want to bottleneck my rig.

"budget" is a tough term to understand when you have a 3070 and 10900k. What is your actual spending limit?

 

for me I'd be looking at a trio of https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-Monitor-Response-FreeSync-G27Q-SA/dp/B08CS3X1R9/ref=sr_1_11?dchild=1&keywords=27in+1440p&qid=1611454313&s=pc&sr=1-11

high refresh when you want it and 1440p, a 3070 shouldn't have any issues running these. 

 

But for around the same price (like $100 more) I'd prefer https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Double-49-Inch-Monitor-LC49RG90SSNXZA/dp/B07L9HCJ2V/ref=pd_sbs_2?pd_rd_w=AIkPe&pf_rd_p=c52600a3-624a-4791-b4c4-3b112e19fbbc&pf_rd_r=NX1A0K1SC591EM56ZDY9&pd_rd_r=32606309-e629-464e-841d-d82b24dfc2e4&pd_rd_wg=fIWhn&pd_rd_i=B07L9HCJ2V&psc=1

3x as bright so you actually get proper HDR, still 1440p and no bezels at all, you sacrifice 144hz for 120hz (which is impossible to notice) and the screen is 1000x better and more immersive.

The best gaming PC is the PC you like to game on, how you like to game on it

Well that is because i spent quite a few and want to save as much as possible, but i know displays are expensive, the ultra wide monitor looks really nice, and yeah was looking for decent HDR thanks for the suggestion. 

 

I still kinda want more monitors for productivity, i could re-use the 1080p i have and maybe get another. 2 1080p and the ultrawide. instead of the 3 1440p, i could save a lot of money that way.

 

I wanted to buy a 500 usd tops at least each month that was my first thought.

i'd prolly recommend 1440p over 4k for a 3070, if you care about colors at all at the low end then there's only 1 choice

the hdr isn't really good at all so i left it off while i had it, but otherwise the colors are best for that price range.

I tested the 3070 on a single 4k smart TV runs decently on ultra quality, but wanted to play surround gaming on 3 1440p monitors i know it will be higher res than 4k, prolly would have to drop to medium.

the cheapest option in that case is probably a g9, though i recommend seeing it in person first if you've never used a VA panel before. It should be better than using 3 monitors for immersion

another option is

though it's barely curved and is more for screen space than immersion
