New here, just looking for some input on future proofing as much as possible since I am getting a PC in the coming months (before the end of the year). Not looking to upgrade anything for a good while after the initial purchases. I am looking at getting a single GTX 1080Ti, 7700k, 32GB memory, & a 750w power supply.

More importantly, would this be enough for triple 4k monitors? One for gaming on highest settings possible. GTAV, Gears 4, some indies here & there. I am fine with standard 60 fps & a bit below that. Monitors will be 60Hz. Gaming would be on one screen only majority of the time but also would like to know if triple screen gaming would be possible with the single card (on any settings even if low game settings & low resolutions). The other two would be for general internet usage while I am also gaming. (Videos, music, browsing). Also, I would rather everything to come out over powered rather than stuck with underpowered.

Thank you for any & all answers.
