Pimp My VESA Setup ($1000)

lukezon

The title says most of it; I am ready for a monitor upgrade. and have $1000 (it can be slightly more but please not to much) to do it.  Here are my current monitors: Left Middle Right.  All three of them are VESA mounted, first two (from the left) are mounted using this.  The last is mounted with this

 

Things I would like:

- VESA Mountable

- G-Sync

- 1440p or similar

- 2 or more monitors or 1 ultrawide

 

 

I haven't thought of a good signature yet.

At 1440p and G SYNC, you are looking at $2100. ( For 3 if them )

What I would do is get a 1440p, 27 inch, G Sync IPS Acer monitor, then get 2x 27inch 60hz IPS monitors from Acer that look similar. You'd be looking at roughly $1100-$1200 for this option

I like that second option you are talking about, what monitors would you suggest?

what will you be doing with the monitors? (gaming on 3x1440p will not happen with that 780)

I wouldn't game surround, just on the middle one.  The two side ones are for media (youtube, netflix), skype, game map, etc.  I also plan on upgrading the 780 next generation.

I haven't thought of a good signature yet.
