pretty sure upgrading to a better gpu and a cpu is the best thing to do,

like 4690k+r9 290 

gaming on a r9 270x is gonna be horrible or it might not even work on 3 monitors at 1080p, it would be best at a single setup at playing 1080p around medium or high settings or a two monitor setup that your not gaming on them
