Depends on what ultrawides you get. 1440p or 1080p?

[manikyath]

the question is, how much of a neck injury are you gonna get from turning your head back and forth all day.

 

as for my actual answer to your question, that'll probably be a yes, but also adding that you absolutely shouldnt ever do that.

1440p

3x3440=10320

May I ask why?

because you'll be having the gaming experience of your neighbor peeking trough a small crack in the back fence.

SLI 980Ti might struggle a bit with triple 1440P monitors. you'd be better off getting a single 4K ultrawide. best gaming experience imo!

Yeah but good luck EVER reaching that 100 FPS thresh hold on any game...  one 1440p ultrawide taxes a gtx 1070 and runs well on a 1080, for 3 you'd need (*guesstimate here folks*) 2*1080 ti

[DocSwag]

Holy fudge that's 3k worth of monitors...

 

More than all the electronics I own combined ;_;

lol, this is 1440p ultrawide.  its closer to 4k (1440p*3550 or so)

yeah but i mean ultrawide 4K. triple UW1440P is pretty heavy stuff, even when you're doing SLI on pretty high end cards..

4K ultrawides don't exist  

 

Also 980 ti is basically a gtx 1070 and if you add perf degradation via sli you'd be capable of comfortably pushing 60 fps on two of those monitors at mid-high settings.  add a third and your fps and quality take a nose dive.

i thought UW4k was the term for 3840x1600 monitors?

Still not quite industry standard (or marketing standard) 4K.  I actually kinda despise the "2k, 3k, 4k, 5k 8k" whatever, it just muddies the water so much that it becomes irrelevant.  

 

Also, only one UW4k monitor is available to the  consumer and it costs $1500 with a refresh rate of 75Hz

[pyrojoe34]

Personally I would consider a 38" 3840x1600 (LG and ACER both have one) instead since your option would be too wide to be comfortable.

Or, if you really want triple monitors, do a 21:9 in the middle with two 16:9 monitors on the side.

That's what I would consider them as well. Many people don't realize they exist yet (to be fair there are only two out that I know of).

There are two (LG and ACER) and they're $1500 and $1300. but if he's willing to spend $3k on three 21:9, 1440p, 100hz monitors then I'm sure $1300 is relatively cheap.

where did you get those prices?  Lowest I can find is 1500.

 

And to be fair I'm in total agreement on the wtf ness of 3 34" UW's.  I suggest OP goes into a store or buys them one at a time to try  out the size.  I mean, 2 34" UW monitors is basically 6 feet and three is 9 feet...  Thats like having the same amount of screen width as a mid-sized car is long

Actually looks like it's on sale for $1200 now.

I still can't justify it... but man do I want one...

 wow, wish we had Micro center in Canada, that's insane.

@pyrojoe34

Damn, the only difference between hybrid and standard GPU's oat MC is like, MAX $40.  Here we pay about 150 extra...

[AlwaysFSX]

For one, triple ultrawides is a terrible idea, second is that there still isn't the GPU power to drive games at that resolution, third games don't even scale correctly at that resolution.

108" of monitor is so so so pointless. unless youre sitting like 6ft away youll have to have your head on a swivvel.
