Is it worth springing of the extra money just to get the extra tiny performance as well about peripherals what would be the best one to go with for a possible triple monitor. As well what would be the best idea for a CPU dealing with triple monitor displays.

This is a question only YOU can answer for yourself. Everyone has a different opinion on whther it is worth it or not, depending on daily use, budget, income, etc...

If you want triple monitors, get the 780 it will definatly will worth the money (although a 290 would probably be better) also an i5 will be fine.

The extra performance gained from a 780 over a 770 is worth it IMO I believe at 1080p it will last a year longer before needing to be replaced. But thats just me, you may have a different regard to the difference in price.

Totally agree here. It really depends on how you value it.

 

For a triple monitor setup I would however go with the 780 because of the more ram and better performance, this however also depends on the monitor resolution.

I think it depends if you are satisfied with the performance of the the 770 grab it and save some money, if not go 780. This is more of a personal opinion question.

Get the 780 if you can squeeze it in, the extra vram helps. I learn't the hard way, modded skyrim eats up all the vram

I would get a R9 290, the extra vram is fantastic for a triple monitor setup and it runs much cheaper than a 780, usally around a $100.
