run 3 monitors? no

run games on 3 monitors? no

 

technically nothing bad will happen, hardware wise

just low framerate and your gpu will most likely run out of vram and use your system ram

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

 I have a 960 and have 3 monitors and they work just fine. I dont stretch games over all 3 because that wrecks the aspect ratio and looks stupid on the games I play. But I can play games on my main monitor absolutely fine with chrome or visual studio on my other monitors

A 960? Triple monitors? Gaming? lolno. Nothing will happen, it won't explode. It'll just run terribad in games. For triple monitors you want to look at stronger cards, or sli.

Nothing.

It really depends on the games, if they are lighter games a 960 would be fine, but gta V and other more graphically intense games you would need something like a 970, or 980 assuming 1080p.

Okay fair point. League or lighter games may be playable

Nothing.
