Three ATM (2x1440p + 1x1080p) but I'm looking for a fourth (and another 1440p to replace the 1080p), three are fine for my workflow but I usually have one dedicated to entertainment so 3+1 is what I'm after now. All purely for productivity though I only game on one.

you dont ask in forums "how many" and then go buy them all at once... thats stupid

 

you either already know because you have already done work on many monitors before, OR you start with one and work your way up according to your needs

Damn FREAKING stupid! Agreed.
